The year started out very strong for the Tennessee Titans and starting quarterback Ryan Tannehill as the team opened the year with a 7-3 record and appeared to be cruising toward the AFC South divisional title and another playoff appearance. But things quickly went downhill. The Titans lost their last seven games and Tannehill suffered a season-ending injury during that losing streak.
But despite the misfortune, Ryan Tannehill wants to return to the Titans next season and believes he can still play at a high level.
“Of course, I’d love to be back here,” Tannehill said according to Jim Wyatt of the Titans website. “We’ll just have to see what happens.
“I definitely have some good years left. I feel really good, even coming off this injury. I feel really good and looking forward to some bright years ahead.”
Tannehill is under contract for 2023, but the Titans could save about $18 million from cutting him during the offseason. Regardless, Tannehill revealed that is rehab is going well and that he is “looking forward to being healthy again.”
“Everything is trending the right way, and rehab is going well,” Tannehill said. “I’m really happy with how things are going, it just sucks I had to go through it. Unfortunately, it’s a part of the game – I was able to stay away from it for a long time, but it finally caught up to me. I am looking forward to being healthy again.”
