  • Titans' Azeez Al-Shaair: Strong season in Tennessee

    Al-Shaair recorded 163 total tackles (84 solo), two sacks, four passes defended and one fumble recovered across 17 games with the Titans in 2023.

    Al-Shaair joined the Titans on a one-year deal before the 2023 season and showed the ability to handle a full defensive workload. He was on the field for a career-best 1,048 snaps and topped 100 tackles for the second time in five professional seasons. Al-Shaair will be entering his age-26 campaign, and even at a position that has been devalued in the modern NFL, he should be able to land a relatively significant contract.

  • Titans' Azeez Al-Shaair: Late addition to injury report

    Al-Shaair was added to the injury report Saturday due to an illness and is questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Al-Shaair has been a key member of the Titans' insider linebacker corps, tallying double-digit stops on six occasions this season. His absence would benefit the likes of Devin Singletary and Dameon Pierce and would force Luke Gifford and Otis Reese into more significant roles.
