Titans executive Chad Brinker has tendered his resignation.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt has been an honor to serve as president of football operations of the Tennessee Titans,\u201d Brinker said in a statement. \u201cOver the years, I\u2019ve understood and embraced my role as the leader of the football strategy, but as I\u2019ve spent less time in personnel, I have a renewed conviction that it is time to return to what I love and move towards my next chapter. I\u2019m grateful for Amy [Adams Strunk\u2019s] understanding in my decision, and for allowing me to pursue other opportunities.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m proud of the work we\u2019ve done over the past three years \u2014 under challenging circumstances \u2014 to begin the process of getting the Titans football organization back on track, not the least of which was last year\u2019s General Manager search. I believe the Titans have exceptional people and long-term stability at the General Manager position and throughout the scouting department. While there is work to be done, I believe we\u2019ve laid the foundation to restore the Titans to their rightful place as a sustainable, winning program.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy family and I will always be grateful for Amy\u2019s belief and trust in me, and for our time in Tennessee.\u201d<\/p>\n
Brinker joined the Titans in 2023 as assistant General Manager, and a year later, the team promoted him to president of football operations. Brinker provided executive leadership and direct oversight for the entire football staff, and he reported directly to Strunk.<\/p>\n
It was Brinker who led the search and hiring process when the team tabbed Mike Borgonzi as General Manager in January 2025.<\/p>\n
During his time with the Titans, Brinker also reshaped and refined the foundation of the team\u2019s analytics department while playing a role in the offseason strategies for player acquisitions in both free agency and the draft.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen we first met Chad, it was clear he was an exceptional talent with deep knowledge of the game and the ability to connect big-picture strategy to execution,\u201d Strunk said in a statement. \u201cWhile it is difficult to lose him, I understand his decision and will do whatever I can to support him. I wish he, Rachelle, and their family the absolute best as they prepare for what\u2019s next and thank them for their dedication and loyalty to the Tennessee Titans.\u201d<\/p>\n
Brinker previously spent 13 years with the Packers in a variety of roles as a talent evaluator and strategic counselor to Packers leadership.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Titans executive Chad Brinker has tendered his resignation. \u201cIt has been an honor to serve as president of…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":612736,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,99],"class_list":["post-612735","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/612735","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=612735"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/612735\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/612736"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=612735"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=612735"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=612735"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
