NASHVILLE — The Tennessee Titans interviewed four more candidates Saturday in their search for a new general manager.
Tennessee virtually interviewed Indianapolis Colts assistant general manager Ed Dodds, Seattle Seahawks senior director of player personnel Matt Berry, Buffalo Bills director of player personnel Terrance Gray, and Catherine Hickman, the assistant GM and vice president of football operations for the Cleveland Browns.
The Titans are working to replace Ran Carthon, who was fired Tuesday after the franchise went 9-25 in his two seasons as general manager. Chad Brinker, the team’s president of football operations, is overseeing the search.
Dodds has spent eight seasons with Indianapolis, the past seven as assistant GM. He started in 2007 as a scout with the Seahawks and moved up to senior personnel executive evaluating college and pro players through 2016. He also has worked with the NFL’s Raiders and at his collegiate alma mater, Texas A&M-Kingsville.
A native of Nashville, Berry got his NFL start spending five seasons with the Atlanta Falcons. He has been with the Seahawks the past 17 seasons, starting as a regional scout, then a national scout before becoming director of college scouting in 2015. He was promoted to his current role in 2023.
Gray has spent eight seasons with the Bills and is in his third season in his current role. He started as assistant director of player personnel in 2021 and director of college scouting. He spent 11 seasons as a college scout for the Minnesota Vikings and started in player development and player personnel in 2003 with the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Titans concluded the second day of interviews Saturday night with Hickman, currently the NFL’s highest-ranking female executive with a team.
She has held her current titles with the Browns since 2022 after being hired in 2019 as the football operations coordinator for the Philadelphia Eagles. She also worked for the Montreal Alouettes and Toronto Argonauts in the Canadian Football League.
Tennessee started its search Friday by interviewing a trio of candidates: former general managers Thomas Dimitroff and Reggie McKenzie, along with John Spytek, the assistant GM for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
