Titans Fire Brian Callahan After 1-5 Start in 2025

Brian Callahan was fired after a 1-5 start in his second season as head coach, bringing his overall record with the Titans to 4-19.

The Titans' offense struggled, scoring only 83 points in six games, the fewest since 1985.

Rookie quarterback Cam Ward, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 draft, has faced challenges, completing 55% of his passes with 3 touchdowns and 4 interceptions.

Potential coaching candidates to replace Callahan include Joe Brady, Kliff Kingsbury, Mike McCarthy, Jesse Minter, and Matt Nagy.

The Titans have struggled since their 2021 AFC No. 1 seed, firing two head coaches and two general managers while going 17-40.

Joe Brady:: Known for his role in LSU's historic 2019 offense, Brady has quickly become a sought-after name. His ability to develop quarterbacks could be attractive to the Titans as they look to nurture Cam Ward.

Kliff Kingsbury:: Kingsbury has experience working with high-profile quarterbacks such as Patrick Mahomes and Caleb Williams. His up-tempo offensive schemes could provide a spark for the Titans' offense.

Mike McCarthy:: A veteran coach with a Super Bowl ring, McCarthy brings experience and a track record of success. However, his recent playoff struggles with the Cowboys may give the Titans pause.

Jesse Minter:: Minter's impact on the Chargers' defense has been remarkable, turning them into one of the league's top units. His defensive acumen could provide a different approach for the Titans.

Matt Nagy:: Nagy's prior relationship with the Titans' general manager and his success as an offensive coordinator with the Chiefs make him a candidate to watch. However, his struggles as head coach of the Bears raise concerns.
