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.

Had it not been for Bruce Matthews, his longtime Offensive Linemate, Mike Munchak, would have easily been the best Lineman in franchise history, but second, to Matthews is nothing to be ashamed of.
Munchak was a high First Round pick from Penn State in 1982, and after an injury-riddled and mediocre rookie year, Munchak settled in as their starting Left Guard, becoming one of the best in the business. A Pro Bowl Selection in 1984 and 1985, Munchak finished his career with a seven-year stretch of Pro Bowls, with two First Team All-Pro nods. The All-Decade Guard played all 12 of his seasons with Houston, starting all but three of his 159 Games. Munchak retired in 1993, and his number 63 was retired the year after.
Munchak was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2001, two years after he was inducted to their Ring of Honor. The Olers would retire his number 63 in 1994.
