NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Tennessee Titans are on their third general manager in nine years and second since January 2023.
Their president of football operations has a simple answer for why this latest hire will work.
“Mike Borgonzi,” Chad Brinker said Wednesday as the Titans introduced Borgonzi as the franchise’s 15th GM all time.
Borgonzi has the No. 1 overall pick in the NFL draft and $50 million in salary cap space to rebuild a franchise that is 16-35 over the past three seasons. It’s a big change from his 16 years with Kansas City where he eventually became the assistant general manager, helping the Chiefs post 12 consecutive winning records. They are now chasing a fifth Super Bowl berth in six seasons and third straight Lombardi Trophy.
Yes, calls inquiring about that No. 1 pick overall already are coming in.
