​The 2026 offseason brought a wave of changes to the Tennessee Titans organization. The entire coaching staff underwent a complete overhaul, with the exception of John “Bones” Fassel, who was retained. New head coach Robert Saleh played a pivotal role in hiring both offensive coordinator Brian Daboll and defensive coordinator Gus Bradley. Along with the scouting department, Saleh helped craft an ambitious offseason plan designed to reshape the team’s trajectory.
A major area of emphasis for the new regime was upgrading the Titans’ offensive line. During the offseason, the Titans signed five offensive linemen and extended another, adding center Austin Schlottmann and right guard Cordell Volson to the roster. The projected starting lineup, from left to right, is Dan Moore Jr., Peter Skoronski, Schlottmann, Volson, and J.C. Latham. This group represents a mix of returning veterans and new pieces intended to stabilize and elevate the protection for the offense.
But even with these changes, where does the Titans’ offensive line stand among NFL teams? Fantasy Points’ Scott DiBenedetto recently ranked all 32 teams by their offensive lines heading into 2026, placing the Titans at No. 27. DiBenedetto notes, in part, that the returners—Lineman LT Dan Moore, LG Peter Skoronski, and RT J.C. Latham—form the core of the unit. Skoronski is highlighted as the standout among the trio in both phases, with Latham contributing effectively to the run game and Moore providing steady, if not spectacular, play. The trio will need to anchor the line as the two new starters acclimate to Daboll’s system, and as Cam Ward develops behind them.
The newcomers are center Austin Schlottmann and right guard Cordell Volson, who arrive from the Giants and Bengals, respectively. Schlottmann demonstrated quality play during limited reps in New York, contributing versatility along the line, while Volson entered training camp coming off a preseason shoulder injury and did not appear in 2025 games. With Ward growing into the offense, there are a lot of moving parts for the center and line to organize quickly, and the group’s performance in the early going will influence how the offense looks in its new configuration.
DiBenedetto had previously ranked the Titans’ line 24th heading into the 2025 season, and despite the offseason reshaping, he projected a lower ranking for 2026. The impact of the offensive line on a quarterback’s performance is often profound, and it remains to be seen how seamlessly this unit will function together in the fall. Schlottmann’s familiarity with Daboll’s system from his two seasons with the New York Giants should help provide stability and allow the other linemen to stay in their natural positions. Latham, Moore, and Skoronski form the returning core, while Volson brings versatility and potential after his Bengals tenure.
Volson’s past experience includes 48 starts across three seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals, which provides a level of depth and familiarity that could prove valuable as the Titans implement their updated attack. Regardless of the exact league ranking for the Titans’ offensive line in 2026, the consensus expectation is that this group will improve and help unlock a more dynamic offensive performance for the team.
In summary, the Titans entered the 2026 offseason with a sweeping overhaul of the coaching staff and a renewed focus on fortifying the offensive line. While projections placed the unit in the lower half of the league, the combination of returning veterans, new starters, and strategic coaching could yield a more cohesive, productive line that supports Daboll’s system and aids Cam Ward in elevating the Titans’ offense. As the season unfolds, watchers will be attentive to how quickly the line gels and how that translates to overall team performance.
