NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Voluntary or not, at OTAs the Titans’ preaching about being a good teammate and doing what is best for the team is clashing right now with guys doing their own thing and following the guidance of their union.
The NFLPA failed to negotiate away OTAs in a new collective bargaining agreement it signed off on in 2020.

The largest share of Titans ever were not at the Thursday session open to the media.
