New Titans head coach Brian Callahan hasn’t been shy about making it known how much he values the wide receiver position in comments both before and after his hiring in Tennessee. Last week he discussed the famous Ja’Marr Chase-Penei Sewell debate from his time in Cincinnati during an appearance on 102.5’s Stillman & Company.
