NFL Week 18 - The Tennessee Titans have officially fired offensive coordinator Todd Downing, according to a report from NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. ESPN's Field Yates adds that Downing was one of four assistant coaches fired by the Titans this afternoon.
Downing began with the Titans as a tight ends coach in 2019. He was promoted to offensive coordinator in 2021 after Arthur Smith left for the Atlanta Falcons head coaching job.
During Downing's two seasons as offensive coordinator, the Titans finished 20th and 21st in offensive DVOA. The two seasons of negative offensive DVOA were a stark contrast to the previous two seasons of top-ten finishes.
