Ranking the best edge rushers Titans will face in 2021

The Tennessee Titans’ offense saw a vast improvement in pass protection in 2020 after allowing just 25 sacks, which was less than half of the 56 the team gave up in 2019.

In fact, the 25 sacks the Titans allowed during the entire 2020 campaign was four less than Tennessee gave up during the first six weeks of the 2019 season alone.

If Tennessee’s group upfront wants to keep the good times rolling and not only keep Tannehill upright but also permit him to take advantage of the weapons he has in the passing attack, it will have to ward-off a slew of talented edge rushers in 2021.

For this list we took who we think is the best edge rusher from each team on the Titans’ schedule, although some squads warranted having two of their edge rushers make the list.

Here’s who made the cut and how we ranked them against one another.
