2 Titans named to PFN’s Top 100 NFL Players of 2024 list

NFL Network continues to slowly release its list of the Top 100 Players of the 2024 Season as voted on by the players themselves. Thus far, only one member of the Tennessee Titans — defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons — has made the cut.

On Saturday, Pro Football Network countered with their own Top 100 Players of 2024 list and two Titans had their names appear.

Simmons, of course, was one of them.

81) Jeffery Simmons, DT, Tennessee Titans

Although he missed the final five games of the 2023 season with a knee injury and ended the year with just 5.5 sacks, Jeffery Simmons remains one of the NFL’s most fearsome interior defenders.

A bully on the interior, Simmons earned back-to-back second-team All-Pro nods for the Titans in 2021 and 2022.

If not for missing games a season ago, it’s a safe bet that Simmons would have appeared much higher on this list.

Next up for the Titans is their prized offseason addition, acquired via trade with the Kansas City Chiefs, cornerback L’Jarius Sneed.

50) L’Jarius Sneed, CB, Tennessee Titans

One of the more versatile corners in the NFL, L’Jarius Sneed spent most of his time in the slot early in his career before playing almost every snap on the perimeter in 2023.

The transition took, as Sneed didn’t allow a receiving touchdown in his coverage area until the Buffalo Bills’ Khalil Shakir scored on him in the Divisional Round. Can he remain a lockdown CB1 after joining the Tennessee Titans this offseason?

There’s no doubt the Titans will rely heavily on Sneed this season and have high expectations after inking him to a four-year, $76.4 million contract.
