Overview
- Tennessee has not finalized a contract but is reportedly weighing an offer to sign Preston Smith for well under $10 million.
- The 32-year-old edge rusher has compiled 70.5 career sacks and earned roughly $77 million playing for Washington, Green Bay and Pittsburgh since 2015.
- Smith’s 2024 campaign produced just 4.5 sacks and 32 tackles, marking one of the lowest output seasons of his decade-long career.
- His experience logging consistent snaps in a 3-4 defensive front and veteran leadership match the Titans’ need to improve a league-ranked bottom-five pass rush.
- Tennessee entered free agency with over $29 million in cap space and has identified edge rusher and cornerback as its top defensive priorities.
