Overview
- The Athletic’s Dianna Russini reported Saturday that representatives for the Texas coach told NFL decision-makers he would be interested in openings, including the Titans.
- CAA agents Jimmy Sexton and Ed Marynowitz responded hours later with a statement calling the report “patently false” and asserting Sarkisian’s focus on Texas.
- After a 45-38 overtime win at Mississippi State, Sarkisian said he was “pissed off” by the report’s rapid spread and called it “completely unprofessional.”
- No interviews or hiring talks have been verified; Sarkisian remains under a Texas deal through 2031 that pays roughly $10.8 million this season.
- Tennessee’s vacancy followed Brian Callahan’s mid-October firing, providing the opening specifically referenced in the initial report.
