The Tennessee Titans are poised to enhance their coaching staff with the anticipated hiring of Brian Daboll as their offensive coordinator under new head coach Robert Saleh. This decision hinges on Daboll not securing the head coaching position with the Las Vegas Raiders, a role he remains in contention for.
Daboll, who recently served as the head coach of the New York Giants, had a challenging tenure with the team, finishing with a record of 20 wins, 40 losses, and 1 tie over three-plus seasons. His last season with the Giants was particularly tough, as the team ranked 31st in the league for points per game, averaging only 16.1, and came in 30th for yards per play. While the Giants improved to 16th for points per game and 17th for yards per play during the 2025 season—despite Daboll coaching only 10 games—his appointment at the Titans could signal a new direction for their offense.
If Daboll officially joins the Titans, his primary focus will be on maximizing the potential of quarterback Cam Ward, with hopes that his previous experience can rejuvenate the team’s offensive strategy. The Jaguars had success against the Titans in their previous season, winning both matchups, but the Titans are clearly looking to change the narrative with this hiring move.
This strategic decision by the Titans underscores their commitment to strengthening their competitive edge in the division, potentially reshaping the dynamics within their matches against rivals like the Jaguars. As this coaching change unfolds, it will be interesting to see how it impacts both teams in the upcoming season.
