In almost seven seasons as the Tennessee Titans general manager, Jon Robinson never had a losing campaign. His Titans won two AFC South titles, three playoff games, made a surprise run to the 2019 AFC title game, and even captured the AFC’s No. 1 seed in 2021.
Yet, despite this on-field resume, the Titans gave their GM the axe on Tuesday. If the Titans were outright terrible or finished a disappointing season, the move wouldn’t have been that surprising. Given that Tennessee is the current leader of the AFC South, on track for a third straight division championship barring an outright collapse, firing Robinson midseason — who got a contract extension after 2021 — is a rather curious move.
