The Tennessee Titans had one of the best front sevens in the NFL in 2021, and it played a key role in not only the team’s defensive revival, but Tennessee’s 12-5 season overall.
While the offense was a mess, the defense carried the load. Tennessee’s front seven was responsible for a lot of that thanks to elite play in both the pass-rush and against the run.
Tennessee tallied 43 sacks in 2021, tied for the ninth-most in the league, and its run defense finished as the No. 2 unit. Looking ahead to 2022, that entire front seven is returning and stands to be among the league’s best again.
