The Tennessee Titans wanted to compete this season. Coach Mike Vrabel said Tuesday winning remains their top focus. Trading a defensive captain and two-time All-Pro safety may jolt the locker room enough to turn around a 2-4 start. The deal also signals the Titans are rebuilding.

FILE - Tennessee Titans safety Kevin Byard on the sidelines during an NFL football game against the Indianapolis Colts, Oct. 8, 2023, in Indianapolis. The Tennessee Titans on Monday, Oct. 23, traded two-time All-Pro safety Byard to the Philadelphia Eagles for a pair of draft picks and safety Terrell Edmunds, a person familiar with the deal told The Associated Press.

“Ran and I are trying to continue to grow the team and continue to do what we think is going to be best now and in the long run to add to our roster, to strengthen our roster,” Vrabel said. “And this was an opportunity to do that.” “I don’t know if there’s anything imminent,” Vrabel said. “A lot of people talk at this time of the year and before the draft and before the trade deadline.”Henry now is the Titans’ longest-tenured player with the team in his eighth season. Asked about potential trades, Henry said the NFL is a business and that he’s focused on trying to win games until told differently.
