The Tennessee Titans have announced that Chad Brinker has stepped down as president of football operations, a surprising move just days after the 2026 NFL Draft. Brinker, who previously led the search for general manager Mike Borgonzi, quickly rose through the organization after joining as assistant GM in 2023. His collaborative role was designed to oversee salary cap, analytics, and team operations, but responsibilities shifted after Borgonzi’s hiring. Brinker, 46, has a background as a player and scout, notably with the Green Bay Packers before joining the Titans.
