The Tennessee Titans have fired general manager Jon Robinson, per Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero. Robinson, who has been the general manager of the Titans since 2016, constructed this team that won the last two AFC South titles.

Titans Fired Robinson Over AJ Brown Trade?

I find it no coincidence that Robinson’s firing comes just two days after Tennessee lost to the Eagles 35-10. AJ Brown, who was traded this past offseason due to contractual reasons, scored twice and had 119 yards against his former team.

My understanding is #Titans brass wasn't happy with the direction of the roster assembled by Jon Robinson and decided to make a change, despite leading the AFC South. He was under contract through the 2027 draft, and walks away with another four years' pay.

Former Vice President of Player Personnel Ryan Cowden, who had the position for seven years now, is now in charge of the player personnel department.
