Titans Sign Franklin-Meyers, Revamp Defense
About this episode
The Tennessee Titans have made a significant defensive move by signing John Franklin-Meyers to a three-year, $63 million deal. Pairing him with All-Pro Jeffery Simmons, they aim to create a formidable interior line. Franklin-Meyers, who had eight sacks last season, and Simmons, with a career-high twelve sacks, will benefit from their shared history with new head coach Robert Saleh. The Titans have also added several new players, including cornerbacks, edge rusher Jermanie Johnson, defensive lineman Solomon Thomas, and linebacker Mohamoud Diabate. Expectations are high for Franklin-Meyers to contribute to this revamped defense, which is now one of the most changed units in the league.

On March 23rd, the Tennessee Titans just made a big move on defense by signing defensive lineman John Franklin Myers to a three-year deal worth. $63 million. They're pairing him up with their all-prostar Jeffrey Simmons to create one of the league's toughest interior lines. Franklin Myers comes off a strong year with the Denver Broncos, where he racked up eight sex, good for fifth among qualified defensive lineman. Players led the way with the career-high 12-sacks despite the team's rough three-win season. Both players previously worked under the Titans' new head coach, Robert Sala, during his time with the New York Jets. Players rave about Salle's leadership and his knack for connecting with the team. His defensive scheme puts a heavy focus on rotating fresh players up front to keep everyone disruptive and effective. The Titans aren't stopping there. They've added three new cornerbacks, traded for edge-rusher Germany Johnson from the Jets, brought in defensive linemen Solomon Thomas from the Cowboys, signed three more guys
on the line, and picked up linebacker Muhammad Diabate over the weekend. This overhaul makes their defense one of the most changed units in the league. Expectations are sky-high for Franklin Myers to step up and help turn this revamped group into a force that dominates games next season. Stay locked in with NFL News Today, AI-powered updates.
