Tennessee show faith in QB who helped revive 2019 seasonSpeculation has risen that Patriots star will leave in free agencySpeculation is mounting that Tom Brady may leave the New
England Patriots in the coming weeks but one of his potential destinations, the Tennessee Titans, have committed their future to Ryan Tannehill.
Tannehill was named the NFL’s comeback player of the year for the 2019 season after helping take the Titans to within one game of the Super Bowl. The 31-year-old appeared destined for a career as a back-up when he was traded to the Titans from the Miami Dolphins last year. However, after he took over from starting quarterback Marcus Mariota he was a big part of Tennessee’s playoff run, during which they beat Brady’s Patriots and the Baltimore Ravens before losing to the eventual
Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC championship game. Tannehill finished the season with a league-high 117.5 quarterback rating, throwing 22 touchdowns and six interceptions. He also made several crucial plays on the ground.
