Kittle Praises Saleh, Titans' New DC

0:00On March 17th, George Kiddell from the San Francisco 49ers has high praise for Robert Sala, the new defensive coordinator for the Tennessee Titans. The two talked more this year than during Kiddell's previous four years with him. Sala loves conspiracy theories, but Kiddell calls him an inspiring coach who knows how to position players for success. Sala helped build the 49ers defense that allowed few points last season, even with injuries, leading to a 13-win record and a playoff spot. Over his career's coordinator and head coach with a New York Jets from 2021 to 2024, he's guided four top five defenses. The Titans finished three in 14 last year and haven't made the playoffs since 2021. Kiddell believes Sala can turn things around quickly, especially with promising second-year quarterback Cam Ward if given time and control. Meanwhile, Kiddell shared an update on his torn Achilles from the wild car playoff win over the Philadelphia Eagles.

1:02He's off the boot on his right leg now and expects to ditch the crutches soon, with recovery going fantastic. He tore two ligaments in his ankle during week 16 against the Indianapolis Colts and kept playing, which led to bad compensation and extra stress. On that Achilles, fans will watch closely as both Kiddell and Sala gear up for better days ahead. Made in AI.
