NASHVILLE, TN – The Tennessee Titans have announced the hiring of Mike Borgonzi as their new general manager. Borgonzi joins the Titans from the Kansas City Chiefs. A press conference is scheduled for the coming days to formally introduce him.
The hiring of Borgonzi marks a significant step in the Titans’ offseason restructuring following a disappointing 2024 season that culminated in the team securing the number one draft pick. The franchise now faces critical decisions regarding the quarterback position, offensive line, and overall team building strategy.
Fan questions submitted to team writer Jim Wyatt reveal significant concerns and varied opinions regarding the upcoming free agency period and the NFL draft. Many fans debated the merits of drafting a rookie quarterback versus signing a veteran, focusing on the need to adequately protect whichever quarterback the team chooses. The need for offensive line improvements was repeatedly highlighted, particularly at the left tackle position.
Several fans expressed strong opinions on specific draft prospects, with some advocating for quarterback Cam Ward and others vehemently opposing the selection of Shedeur Sanders. The ongoing debate over the future of quarterback Will Levis also dominated the mailbag.
Wyatt addressed the concerns in his mailbag, acknowledging the uncertainty surrounding the offseason plans, but expressing confidence in the potential of several 2024 draft picks like JC Latham, T’Vondre Sweat, and Jarvis Brownlee. He also noted the need for improved coaching and play-calling. Wyatt emphasized that the hiring of Borgonzi represents a positive start to addressing the team’s numerous challenges.
The Titans’ upcoming schedule includes a highly anticipated game in Las Vegas, marking the franchise’s first appearance in the city. The team’s focus now turns to evaluating potential free agent acquisitions and strategizing for the upcoming NFL draft.
