The Tennessee Titans have fired general manager Ran Carthon after two seasons, concluding his tenure with a 9-25 record, including a 3-14 record in the most recent season. The decision was announced by the team on Tuesday, marking a significant shift in the franchise's leadership. Carthon, who was the first Black general manager in Titans history, had signed a contract extension last offseason, leaving him with four years remaining on his deal at the time of his dismissal. The Titans' owner, Amy Adams Strunk, expressed disappointment in the team's performance and concerns about the long-term future, indicating that the move was necessary to improve the team's trajectory. Chad Brinker, the president of football operations, has been given final authority over football operations and will lead the search for Carthon's replacement. Head coach Brian Callahan will continue in his role as the team prepares to make the No. 1 overall pick in the upcoming NFL draft.
