The Tennessee Titans made waves on Tuesday when they fired general manager Ran Carthon. On Wednesday, they set out to find his replacement.
President of football operations Chad Brinker began his search to replace Carthon and started reaching out to potential candidates. We outlined some of the potential candidates yesterday, but as always, new ones emerge.
One name we didn’t mention in our 10 potential candidates is currently available without a request: former Atlanta Falcons general manager Thomas Dimitroff.
Per source, former #Falcons GM Thomas Dimitroff will interview for the #Titans GM position.

Dimitroff has been out of the league since being let go during the 2020 season by the Falcons. He was Atlanta’s general manager from 2008 to 2020 and recently interviewed with the New York Jets for their opening. Dimitroff has a solid background in personnel, starting off as a scout with the Kansas City Chiefs and continuing through the Detroit Lions, Cleveland Browns and New England Patriots before being hired as a general manager by the Falcons.
The Titans are said to be looking for a personnel guy and Dimitroff has a background that makes him an attractive candidate.
We will continually update the general manager search as each candidate interviews. Check back for any and all information.
