Inside linebacker was arguably the most concerning position on the Tennessee Titans’ roster entering training camp. Fast forward a few weeks and the Titans are dealing with a logjam at off-ball ‘backer as they approach next week’s roster cuts. How quickly things change.
Kenneth Murray has been a revelation as the team’s top linebacker, though it’s the younger players that will force general manager Ran Carthon and head coach Brian Callahan to make difficult decisions next week. Third-year defender Jack Gibbens seems settled into the starting role opposite Murray, though perhaps his leash has gotten shorter during the preseason.
