The Tennessee Titans pulled a stunner on Thursday, trading defensive tackle T'Vondre Sweat to the New York Jets in exchange for EDGE Jermaine Johnson II. The Titans had a need at EDGE, and they've partially addressed it by acquiring Johnson, who previously played for head coach Robert Saleh and defensive line coach Aaron Whitecotton. However, Sweat's departure creates a new hole at d-tackle next to Jeffery Simmons.
Simmons is now the only starting-caliber player under contract for the Titans at defensive tackle. Sebastian Joseph-Day and James Lynch are both on expiring deals. The Titans should have interest in re-signing both players, but nothing is guaranteed in free agency.
