Something def happened behind the scenes that's gonna come out at some point (hopefully).
Can't link twitter but from Dianna Russini:

The Titans believed trading Vrabel was too complicated and would take too long, per sources. They wanted to move on quickly. I was told Vrabel never asked ownership for a trade or asked out of Tennessee.

Sounds like the GM wanted him out

Hope this is more about Vrabel wanting out because he is a good coach. He will land on his feet no doubt.

The previous GM Robinson is the one who traded AJ

Pretty sure he got fired 6 months later :mjlol:

They hired Ran Carthon from 49ers I’m sure they just want a fresh start at the coaching position

Wasn't really his fault. Coaches are only as good as the roster you obtain for them. Traded AJ, let good linemen go. Tannehill and Henry got older. Just was what it was. His penchant for hiring from within, like Arthur Fukkin Smith & Tim Kelly are blemishes on him but that's about it tbh. He he a helluva coach at the end of the day. Just a tad bit outdated to some of his approaches.

Arthur Smith was actually a good OC for Tennessee. He became worse in Atlanta.

Yeah if we had to pick, I'ma let Ran do his thing. He made some solid picks the last draft and got that 49er new car smell on him (til he don't). I'm ready to completely move us into modern territory. We just been toying with it the last few years. Begrudgingly moving inch at a time. Can't do that now staring at CJ on the other side of our division, AR (possibly) and Sunshine when he ain't actin' a fool

I wonder if Ran will go with a Shanahan tree guy like Bobby Slowik. That would hurt Houston too.
