National reaction to the Titans firing GM Jon Robinson after loss to Eagles

Tennessee just shook up the NFL landscape, firing general manager Jon Robinson after a 35-10 loss to the Eagles that saw wide receiver A.J. Brown dismantle the defense.

The Titans are in first place in the AFC South, have a three-game lead over the Colts and Jaguars, and still made the move citing the want for a different direction.

Tennessee hired Robinson as general manager in January 2016 and in 2017 he was promoted to executive vice president/general manager.

The national media reacted to everything and Robinson’s departure was no different.

The Titans have been winners and a tough out in the AFC South, but imagine if Robinson makes better choices.
