In just a matter of days, the Tennessee Titans<\/a> will report to training camp, and the grind of the 2025 NFL season will begin.<\/p>\n

For some players, the grind never stops, and they spend their offseasons getting into shape and honing their skills. Count Roger McCreary as one of those, and he is focused on making his fourth season in Nashville his best, declaring on social media that, \u201cthis season is personal.\u201d<\/p>\n

After posting his workout video with his declaration, he joined Mike Garafolo and Cameron Wolfe on The Insiders on the NFL Network to discuss his personal goals and outlook on the Titans heading into the 2025 season. To kick things off, Garafolo hit on the \u201cpersonal\u201d comment.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt means a lot; this year is personal. Everybody knows me as a quiet guy, and I feel like going into my year four, I’ve got to show them all me,\u201d he said. \u201cI just gotta express who I truly am on and off the field. And I feel this is the year.\u201d<\/p>\n

After discussing his personal goals, which include being regarded as one of the top cornerbacks in the game, McCreary touched on the Titans and his outlook for the team heading into 2025.<\/p>\n

\u201cGoing into the season with the Titans, I feel like we are going to show people who we\u2019re really made of and who we truly are.\u201d He said, \u201cBecause I feel like a lot of people don\u2019t respect us. They don\u2019t talk about the Titans.\u201d<\/p>\n

McCreary is spot on with his take. Many outlets discount the Titans, and have them as almost an afterthought within the NFL landscape, and it is clear from the interview that he does take that personally.<\/p>\n

Tennessee has a tough decision ahead with McCreary, who is entering the final year of his rookie contract. If they don\u2019t extend him now, an outstanding season could price him out of Nashville, with the value of slot corner increasing with every contract. McCreary has been a productive player for the Titans and should be on their short list to retain.<\/p>\n
