The Tennessee Titans have handed out some big contracts in recent years, but there are still plenty of salary cap bargains on the roster going into 2022.
The majority of the Titans’ money is wrapped up in the offense. Tennessee is set to spend $121.4 million on that side of the ball in 2022, which is the fourth-highest total in the NFL.
On the flip side, the defense comes with a cheap price tag. The Titans’ unit will cost $84.2 million, the seventh-lowest total in the league.
Based on what we saw from both sides of the ball in 2021, if we didn’t know any better we’d assume Tennessee is spending more on its defense. Alas, that isn’t the case, but the time to spend big on the defense is rapidly approaching thanks to some rookie contracts expiring.
For now, the Titans have plenty of bargains on the defensive side of the ball going into 2022 in terms of cap hit, and a few on offense. Let’s take a look.
