Rashad Weaver of the Titans highlights key distinction with Dennard Wilson

Tennessee Titans outside linebacker Rashad Weaver is among the players who are thrilled with the new coaching staff. After practice on Wednesday, Weaver expressed his admiration for the aggressive approach that defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson has brought to Nashville. He even mentioned that he is willing to “run through a brick wall” for Wilson, a sentiment he shared with the defensive coordinator on the first day they met. Weaver described the defense as fun and aggressive, highlighting the positive impact Wilson has had on the team.

Weaver’s comments shed light on the differences between the new coaching staff and the previous one. He noted that the current coaches are diligent in pointing out mistakes and acknowledging when players are performing well. This feedback has motivated Weaver to strive for improvement and correct any errors, as he now knows when he is on the right track. This level of support and guidance has boosted his confidence and determination for the upcoming season.

As Weaver enters a critical year in 2024, he recognizes the importance of making significant contributions to the team. After a disappointing third season with no sacks and limited impact, Weaver is eager to showcase his skills and athleticism. With the departure of Denico Autry and the lack of a direct replacement, Weaver has a chance to secure a more prominent role in the defense this season. How he seizes this opportunity and performs on the field will determine his future with the Titans.
