The Tennessee Titans have been widely viewed as one of the worst teams in the NFL by analysts post-draft and heading into training camp, and for good reason. The team is coming off back-to-back brutal seasons and earned the top pick in the draft after their 2024 debacle.
While excitement is building around the facility in Nashville, speculation will continue until the season begins, leaving people to rely on history as their guide. This includes the world of fantasy and video games, where Tennessee has seen its stock rise out of the basement in the popular Madden video game series.

Team rankings from this year’s version (beta) — Madden ’26 — have been released, and the Titans are not the lowest-rated of the NFL’s current 32 teams. They come in at No. 26, ahead of three of their opponents, including the Denver Broncos, whom they will face in the season opener.
Remarkably, the game engineers are tapping into the potential of the young talent on the roster and have the team on an upward trajectory. Football analysts often fail to do so during their power rankings, consistently placing the Titans at the bottom of the league entering training camp.
While the official release of Madden NFL 26 is still several weeks out, uStadium got its hands on the Madden NFL 26 beta team ratings for all 32 teams in the NFL, meaning these rankings could change. The team rankings will not be final until the game is officially released to the public, which is tentatively scheduled for August 14.
