Tennessee Titans: Ryan Tannehill shoots down QB competition talk

If there was a quarterback competition on the Tennessee Titans, it’s news to backup quarterback, Ryan Tannehill.

Tannehill was predictably the second quarterback to enter the game on Thursday night, and he had another solid showing. Tannehill completed seven of his 11 passes for 84 yards and a touchdown.

When asked what he thought about the notion that he could begin the season as the Titans’ starter instead of Marcus Mariota, Tannehill shot it down, per Buck Reising of A to Z Sports Nashville.

“I don’t think that’s an option at this point. I’m Just going out and competing against the defense that’s out there each and every play, and executing the best calls I can.
