Yes, we know that this is taking a while!

As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists and consistently look to update them when necessary and based on necessity. As such, we are delighted to present our post-2023 revision of our top 50 Tennessee Titans.

As for all of our top 50 players in football, we look at the following:

1.  Advanced Statistics.

2.  Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National Football League.

3.  Playoff accomplishments.

4.  Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles that are not reflected in a stat sheet.

Last year, the Titans had a losing record of 6-11 and are in rebuild mode.  There were only two elevations and no new entries.

As always, we present our top five, which saw no changes:

1. Bruce Matthews
2. Warren Moon
3. Mike Munchak
4. Earl Campbell
5. Robert Brazil

You can find the entire list here.

Running Back Derrick Henry, whose run with Tennessee ended last season, moved up to #9 from #14.

Of note, Kevin Byard, who was traded to Philadelphia during the season, remained at #28.

Quarterback Ryan Tannehill, who is currently a free agent only moved up one spot to #48.

We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.

Quarterback, Ryan Tannehill, makes his first appearance at #49.

We welcome your input and comments and as always, we thank you for your support.

Derrick Henry was a power Running Back at Alabama, where as a junior, he won the Heisman and led the Crimson Tide to a National Championship.  Despite this, there were concerned that his playing style would not be conducive to a long NFL career, and it dropped him to the Second Round, where the Titans took him.

Henry backed up DeMarco Murray as a rookie and sophomore, accumulating over 1,100 Rushing Yards over those two campaigns.  He took over as the lead Back in 2019, rushing for 1,059 Yards with 12 Touchdowns, but it was the springboard for what was to come.

Henry won the Rushing Title in 2019 (1,540) with what also a league-leading 16 Rushing Touchdowns.  This was not a fluke, as he joined the exclusive 2,000-Yard club (2,027) and breaking his previous record with 17 TDs on the ground.  Henry was named the AP Offensive Player of the Year, an appropriate honor for the Titan's workhorse.  Had Henry not got injured during the 2021 Season, it is possible that a second Rushing Title and OPOY occured.  The year after, Henry was again one of the beasts on the ground, rushing for 1,538 Yards and 13 Touchdowns while adding a third Pro Bowl.  Henry played one more season with the Titans where he rushed for 1,167 Yards and went to his fourth Pro Bowl.

The Baltimore Ravens signed Henry afterward, and he left the team with 9,502 Rushing Yards and 90 Touchdowns.

2023 Pre-Season Rank #392022 Pre-Season Rank #47, 2021 Pre-Season Rank #70, 2020 Pre-Season Rank #108.  Peak Period: 2019-23

In 2019, it felt like Derrick Henry won the Rushing Title out of nowhere, as he was in his fourth year, and it he only had 1,059 Yards the year before.  In 2020, Henry won his second Rushing Title, shattering his previous mark, and joined the 2,000 Yard Rushing club and winning the Offensive Player of the Year.  Had he not gotten injured during the 2021 season, Henry was on his way to his second straight OPOY.  After a bounce back in 2022 that saw him net his third 1,500-yard campaign.  Henry has one more year in Tennessee and is the current active rushing leader (9.502), and is looking to break 10,000 Rushing Yards as a member of the Baltimore Ravens.  He is also the active leader in Rushing Touchdowns (90), making it possible for Henry to break 100 TDs on the ground this season too.
