Overview
- Sports Illustrated’s Conor Orr reported that some around the league view McCarthy, 62, as an early front-runner for the Titans’ opening.
- The appeal is grounded in his quarterback-development track record and Tennessee’s priority to maximize 2025 top pick Cam Ward.
- Orr also noted conflicting opinions that the franchise may favor a younger voice, so McCarthy is not considered a lock.
- McCarthy owns a 174-112 regular-season record with an 11-11 playoff mark and a Super Bowl title from his Packers tenure.
- After departing Dallas, he sat out the 2025 season and is expected to draw interviews as Tennessee resets following Brian Callahan’s short stint and approaches a 2027 stadium launch.
