""These decisions are never easy, and they become more difficult when they involve people of great character. We are grateful for Brian's investment in the Titans and Tennessee community during his tenure as head coach. We thank him and his family for being exemplary ambassadors of the Tennessee Titans." "While we are committed to a patient and strategic plan to build a sustainable, winning football program, we have not demonstrated sufficient growth. Our players, fans, and community deserves a football team that achieves a standard we are not currently meeting, and we are committed to making the hard decisions necessary to reach that standard.""
"Callahan leaves Tennessee with a 4-19 record. He becomes the first NFL head coach to be fired this season. The Titans picked Callahan to replace Vrabel after the 2023 season. Tennessee fired Vrabel after the team went 6-11 that year. After three consecutive playoff appearances from 2019-21, Vrabel went 13-21 over his final two seasons with the Titans. Vrabel spent a year with the Browns as a coaching consultant before returning to the Patriots as head coach this offseason."
