Is Dan Moore at left tackle good enough next season? Are the Titans examining a large crop of tackles as closely as any other position? Poor choices there have been a big part of the story of this franchise\u2019s decline, but it also means they have to keep trying until they get it right.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Athletic\u2019s Joe Rexrode on Titans\/Dan Moore<\/p>\n<p>New Titans offensive coordinator Brian Daboll may have a better plan for utilizing Moore in 2026, but it\u2019s also possible that Tennessee decides to bring in some stiff competition. After all, as Rexrode noted, the Titans have to ensure they provide a more stable environment for the former No. 1 overall pick, and Moore\u2019s play wasn\u2019t up to par this season.<\/p>\n<p>Boasting the fourth overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, the Titans could look to select their franchise left tackle in the first round. If so, Moore could find himself learning how to play a different position along the offensive line as the Titans try putting their five best protectors on the field.<\/p>\n<p>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/sports.yahoo.com\/articles\/nfl-insider-offers-wide-range-220403997.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:NFL Insider Offers Wide Range for Malik Willis Contract Projection;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">NFL Insider Offers Wide Range for Malik Willis Contract Projection<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Related Headlines<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In an effort to avoid another last-place finish that saw them go 3-14, the Tennessee Titans made a&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":772749,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2061],"tags":[1811,127,5852,7,41806,6,526,394,2411,527],"class_list":{"0":"post-772748","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tennessee-titans","8":"tag-brian-callahan","9":"tag-cam-ward","10":"tag-dan-moore","11":"tag-football","12":"tag-joe-rexrode","13":"tag-nfl","14":"tag-tennessee","15":"tag-tennessee-titans","16":"tag-tennesseetitans","17":"tag-titans"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116124573006003829","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/772748","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=772748"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/772748\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/772749"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=772748"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=772748"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=772748"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
