Hot Topics From Titans HC Robert Saleh’s Zoom Call on Monday

Tennessee Titans head coach Robert Saleh addressed reporters following his team's 27-24 defeat against the Cleveland Browns. Saleh defended quarterback Cam Ward's performance, stating Ward played winning football despite areas to improve. He highlighted that the Titans currently struggle with closing games, having dropped four one-score contests this season heading into their upcoming matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Saleh also critiqued the defense after surrendering 491 total yards to Cleveland, specifically pointing out poor tackling, coverage breakdowns, and a lack of pass rush. Additionally, he explained veteran running back Michael Carter played over inactive rookie Nick Singleton due to superior pass protection, while punter Tommy Townsend undergoes evaluation for a knee injury.
