The Tennessee Titans finished 3-14 for the second consecutive season in 2025. Brian Callahan was fired after six games, and an offense that never found much traction finished 30th in scoring. No. 1 pick Cam Ward was sacked 55 times, tied for a league high, in his 17 starts as the Titans struggled to give him much help.Robert Saleh arrives in Tennessee after spending 2025 as defensive coordinator for the San Francisco 49ers, returning to a head-coaching role after nearly four seasons leading the New York Jets. He brings with him a largely new staff. Brian Daboll will run the offense and Gus Bradley the defense, while John Fassel is back as special teams coordinator.Year 2 should provide a much clearer read on Ward now. He threw for 3,169 yards, 15 touchdowns and seven interceptions as a rookie, improving late before injuring his right shoulder in the season finale. He’s healthy again and has a significantly upgraded supporting cast. At receiver, the Titans signed Wan’Dale Robinson and used the No. 4 overall pick on Ohio State’s Carnell Tate. Calvin Ridley returns out wide, while running back Tony Pollard is coming off a career year in which he rushed for 1,082 yards.Tennessee also reshaped its defense this offseason. The Titans traded for edge rusher Jermaine Johnson II, who was a Pro Bowler under Saleh in 2023. They signed defensive lineman John Franklin-Myers and cornerbacks Alontae Taylor and Cor’Dale Flott, then used the No. 31 pick on Auburn edge rusher Keldric Faulk and a second-round pick on Texas linebacker Anthony Hill Jr.Watching the Titans this season is relatively straightforward. Tennessee’s first 16 games are Sunday afternoon matchups split between CBS and Fox. Only the Week 18 trip to face the Houston Texans remains TBD. Saleh’s tenure with the Titans opens at home against his former Jets team.Be sure to follow the Titans on The Athletic, along with national NFL coverage from “The Athletic Football Show” and Scoop City, throughout the season.All times listed below are ET.The full 2026 Tennessee Titans schedule Wk.MatchupDateTimeNetwork1 Jets Sunday, Sept. 13 1:00 p.m. CBS 2 Eagles Sunday, Sept. 20 1:00 p.m. Fox 3@ Giants Sunday, Sept. 27 1:00 p.m. CBS 4@ Ravens Sunday, Oct. 4 1:00 p.m. CBS 5 Texans Sunday, Oct. 11 1:00 p.m. CBS 6@ Colts Sunday, Oct. 18 1:00 p.m. Fox 7 Browns Sunday, Oct. 25 1:00 p.m. CBS 8@ Bengals Sunday, Nov. 1 1:00 p.m. CBS 9 BYE 10 Jaguars Sunday, Nov. 15 1:00 p.m. Fox 11@ Cowboys Sunday, Nov. 22 1:00 p.m. Fox 12@ Jaguars Sunday, Nov. 29 4:05 p.m. CBS 13 Commanders Sunday, Dec. 6 1:00 p.m. CBS 14@ Lions Sunday, Dec. 13 1:00 p.m. Fox 15 Colts Sunday, Dec. 20 1:00 p.m. CBS 16@ Raiders Sunday, Dec. 27 4:05 p.m. Fox 17 Steelers Sunday, Jan. 3 1:00 p.m. CBS 18@ Texans TBA Times in Eastern.
