He Works Hard for the Money

It has been more than a week since the Tennessee Titans hosted wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins on a free-agent visit. Since then, he has met with one other team and made one big promise. He has not, however, settled on where he will play in 2023. Opinions vary on whether the wait is good news or bad for the Titans. ... Running back Derrick Henry is mentioned prominently in any discussion about Tennessee's offense – and rightfully so. His workload and his production in recent seasons have been invaluable to the team and whatever successes it has had. Now in his late 20s and with seven NFL seasons under his belt, can he expect to have the ball in his hands as often this fall? Or should coaches, led by new offensive coordinator Tim Kelly, be thinking about doing things differently? ... Many prognosticators mention second-year tight end Chig Okonkwo among the NFL's leading "breakout" candidates for 2023. There is no argument from the panel, so everyone offers their best guess about just how big that breakout will look on the stat sheet.
