The Tennessee Titans are in a transitional phase as they prepare for the upcoming season, particularly at the inside linebacker position. With free agent Cody Barton joining the squad, the team is evaluating several young talents, among them second-year linebacker Cedric Gray. Gray, who faced challenges early in his rookie season due to injuries, has expressed newfound confidence and comfort in the revamped linebacker group as they compete during OTAs.

Gray's performance during the latter part of the previous season has laid a solid foundation for his aspirations in 2025. He aims to solidify his role and contribute significantly, indicating a strong desire to make an impact. As the Titans navigate the roster uncertainties, the linebacking competition will be pivotal not just for individual careers but for the team's defensive strategy moving forward.
