Titans bring back John 'Bones' Fassel as special teams coordinator

The Tennessee Titans are bringing back John ‘Bones’ Fassel as special teams coordinator, the team announced on Jan. 29.

New coach Robert Saleh opted to retain Fassel from the previous coaching staff.

Fassel joined the Titans before the 2025 season after stints coaching special teams units with the Cowboys, Rams and Raiders.

Fassel oversaw the improved Titans kick and punt return units, including All-Pro rookie returner Chimere Dike.
