The Tennessee Titans have undergone a significant shift in their approach to analytics. Former general manager Jon Robinson was slow to embrace analytics, but current general manager Ran Carthon is a strong supporter. Additionally, Chad Brinker, the president of football operations, has brought his own model for data analysis to the team.
The Titans are continuing to prioritize analytics by hiring two new football analysts, Erin Psajdl Davis and Alex Rogers. Psajdl Davis has experience as a data scientist with the Kansas City Chiefs and the Houston Texans, while Rogers has worked as an intern for the NBA’s Phoenix Suns and as a data analyst in other industries.
While analytics are not the only factor in decision-making, they are seen as a valuable tool by Carthon and his team. The Titans’ dedication to using data to inform their strategies demonstrates their commitment to improving their performance on the field.
