Mike Vrabel makes it clear Titans new DC will come from within

While down at the Super Bowl in Miami, Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel spoke about the vacant defensive coordinator position the team currently has.

The job opened up when former defensive coordinator, Dean Pees, announced his retirement following the end of the season.

For those of us who were hoping for a sexy hire from outside the organization like Wade Phillips or Kris Richard, it doesn’t look like that will happen based on what Vrabel is saying.

Instead, Vrabel sounds like he wants to leave the job of defensive coordinator to someone who is already within the organization, or at least someone he has worked with him before in Houston, per Jim Wyatt of Titans Online.
