“After extensive conversations with our owner and general manager, we met with Brian Callahan this morning to inform him that we are making a head coaching transition,” Brinker said. “These decisions are never easy, and they are made more difficult when they involve people of great character. We are grateful for Brian's contributions to the Titans and the Tennessee community during his tenure as head coach. We thank him and his family for being exemplary ambassadors for the Tennessee Titans.
“While we are committed to a patient and strategic plan to build a sustainable, winning football program, we have not demonstrated sufficient growth. Our players, fans and community deserve a football team that achieves a standard that we currently do not meet, and we are committed to making the difficult decisions necessary to achieve and maintain that standard.”
