Mike Vrabel, the head coach of the Tennessee Titans, has been on the hot seat all season, which has fueled speculation about where he will be coaching in 2024. Throughout the season, he has been linked to the New England Patriots amid Bill Belichick rumors, but nothing has been discussed further between the two teams. A new team has emerged as one of the favorites to hire Vrabel as their new head coach if the Titans fire him.
While nothing has been confirmed regarding Vrabel’s future, one of three options will be considered this offseason. The head coach will either stay in Tennessee as head coach, be traded to another team, or be fired, making him available for hire by other teams. While all three options appear viable, Vrabel’s time in Tennessee will most likely end after 2023.
The Los Angeles Chargers, who are in desperate need of a new and improved leader, have emerged as one of the favorites to land the head coach. The Chargers fired former head coach Brandon Staley earlier this season and have been in tank mode since. Having a well-known leader like Vrabel in the Los Angeles locker room could provide the Chargers with the much-needed boost. With Jim Harbaugh still the team’s favorite, Vrabel could be a great backup option if Harbaugh decides to go another route.
Vrabel has also been linked to the Patriots, who will most likely fire their head coach after this season. Vrabel has a long history with the Patriots, having previously played linebacker for them. He is acquainted with the organization and its owner, Robert Kraft, and this could be a perfect match.
With the NFL offseason rapidly approaching, many intriguing head coaching positions are expected to open up across the league. Vrabel, Belichick, and Harbaugh are currently the most sought-after coaches, paving the way for a fun and interesting offseason. Will Vrabel return to the Titans for another season, or will he coach a different team in 2024?
