Front multiplicity, coverage consistency. Arguably the most noticeable words that new Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel uttered at his introductory press conference. While most fans are concerned with what the new offense will look like, I’m personally intrigued by the new defense that comes with that, as well.
In order to accomplish what Vrabel has laid out, the Titans will need to get more versatile in the middle of their defense. They will need linebackers who can not only fill gaps and tackle but can also hold up their end in pass coverage as well. That may very well spell the end of Avery Williamson’s tenure in a two-tone blue uniform (unless he comes back on an ultra team-friendly deal).
