Lions QB Makes Sense for Titans
If there is one thing clear about the Tennessee Titans right now, it is that they badly need to make a move for a legitimate starting quarterback.
Will Levis has done nothing to show development and improvement, while Mason Rudolph is also clearly not a starting caliber NFL quarterback. Heading into the offseason, the Titans will be tasked with finding a new option.
There is a chance that Tennessee could look to get aggressive in the NFL Draft to land one of the top quarterback prospects. Cam Ward looks like an ideal fit if the Titans could get him.
However, there is also a chance that Tennessee could explore the free agency and trade market for a new quarterback.
Should they opt to go the trade route, they could target a quarterback who would not cost them an arm and a leg. Perhaps a younger backup quarterback from another team would make sense.
One potential option could be trading for Detroit Lions’ backup quarterback Hendon Hooker.
Hooker was originally selected by the Lions with the No. 68 overall pick in the third round of the 2023 NFL Draft. He has played in three games in limited action this season, completing six of his nine pass attempts for 62 yards.
At 26 years old, he could be a long-term franchise quarterback option if things pan out.
Bringing in Hooker would have no downside to it. The Titans would not feel pressure to play him like they would by bringing in a veteran option. Also, Hooker would be able to compete with Levis and the best man would win the job before the 2025 campaign.
Throughout his career, Hooker has shown off immense talent. In his draft class, some thought that he had top-tier potential to be an NFL starter down the road.
In five college seasons, including his last two with the Tennessee Volunteers, Hooker completed 67 percent of his passes for 8,974 yards, 80 touchdowns, and just 12 interceptions. He also picked up 2,083 yards and 25 touchdowns on the ground.
Acquiring Hooker also would not be too expensive. Tennessee could likely flip a late pick in the middle rounds for him.
All of that being said, something has to change for the Titans. They can’t afford to stand pat and hope that Levis will figure things out.
Trading for a piece like Hooker could be the move that motivates Levis, or Hooker himself could end up being the team’s starter moving forward.

Tennessee DB Christian Harrison, son of NFL great Rodney Harrison, enters transfer portal
Tennessee defensive back Christian Harrison, the son of former NFL great Rodney Harrison, has entered the transfer portal.
Harrison announced his decision on X, formerly known as Twitter, on Sunday. He played in the Vols’ 42-17 loss to Ohio State in a College Football Playoff first-round game on Saturday night, making two tackles and played 25 snaps.
His father, Rodney Harrison, was a two-time All-Pro, two-time Super Bowl champion and a member of the New England Patriots Hall of Fame as one of the top safeties of the past 30 years. The elder Harrison played under Bill Belichick, the new coach at North Carolina.
Harrison is the 10th scholarship player to enter the transfer portal in December. The portal is open through Dec. 28.
Harrison is a 6-foot-1, 191-pounder from Atlanta. He played 26 games with four starts over three seasons at Tennessee. He took a redshirt in 2023, so he has two seasons of eligibility remaining.
Harrison made 33 tackles, including three for loss, in his UT career.

But by midway through this season, Boo Carter, an SEC All-Freshman performer, moved ahead of Harrison in the rotation.
Harrison was a three-star signee in UT’s 2022 class. He originally committed to Liberty and ultimately chose the Vols over Kansas State, Maryland, Georgia Tech, Missouri, Utah, Virginia, Virginia Tech, West Virginia and others.
