Tennessee Titans founder Bud Adams died in 2013, and the team’s ownership situation has been in somewhat of a state of chaos ever since. That reportedly still remains the case during the 2016 offseason.
Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk provided the details on Tuesday: “As one source with knowledge of the discussions tells PFT, the Titans ownership situation is still ‘a mess,’ with the NFL not satisfied by efforts to address issues with the hierarchy—and with the possibility of a forced sale still very real.”
Florio noted the entire situation dates back to the fact Adams didn’t give clear control of the Titans to a single person within his family and instead spread the authority to three sources.
