NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The Tennessee Titans find themselves in unfamiliar territory as the new league year approaches. After three consecutive playoff appearances and two consecutive AFC South titles, the Titans are looking to bounce back from their first losing season in five years under coach Mike Vrabel.
New general manager Ran Carthon inherited a roster that is in need of a talent influx. But last month, according to Roster Management System, the Titans were $23.1 million over the $224.8 million salary cap. Tennessee made moves to get under the cap by releasing left tackle Taylor Lewan, wide receiver Robert Woods, inside linebacker Zach Cunningham and kicker Randy Bullock last month.
