Titans fire GM Jon Robinson after 35-10 loss to the Eagles

After being bullied by the Eagles, and watching A.J. Brown dominate in person, The Titans have parted ways with GM Jon Robinson.

Vice President of Player Personnel Ryan Cowden will be in charge for the remainder of the season.

Robinson was hired by the franchise in 2016.

“Since becoming controlling owner in 2015, my goal has been to raise the standard for what is expected in all facets of our organization. I believe we have made significant progress both on and off the field through investments in leadership, personnel and new ideas. This progress includes the core of our business, the football team itself, which is regularly evaluated both by results (wins and losses) and team construction/roster building. I am proud of what we have accomplished in my eight seasons of ownership, but I believe there is more to be done and higher aspirations to be met.

I want to thank Jon for his dedicated work to set this organization on an upward trajectory and I wish him and his family the best.”

Robinson worked as the director of college scouting with the New England Patriots before serving as the director of player personnel for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

He’ll now be remembered for choosing not to pay A.J. Brown, and instead trading the star wide receiver to Philadelphia for draft picks.
