The NFL offseason has marked its merciless arrival. General managers may begin applying the franchise tag to players with expiring contracts beginning this Tuesday, February 20, with the deadline extending to March 5th. Free agency’s legal tampering period runs from March 11 to March 13. The Tennessee Titans will be facing a unique deadline this Monday, February 19.
If the Titans don’t extend the contracts of Ryan Tannehill, Derrick Henry, Azeez Al-Shaair, and Sean Murphy-Bunting prior to end of business day Monday (4 p.m. E.T.), each player listed will see the void year of their contract accelerate into 2024.
