The Titans signed cornerback Alontae Taylor to a $60M, 3-year deal with $42M guaranteed.

The Tennessee Titans have signed free agent cornerback Alontae Taylor to a three-year, $60 million deal, including $42 million guaranteed, marking a key addition to their secondary. The 27-year-old, a former Tennessee Vols standout and second-round pick in 2022, played four seasons with the Saints, recording 52 passes defensed, 10 quarterback hits, and 7 sacks. Known for his versatility and ability to blitz, Taylor is expected to play outside cornerback for the Titans, joining a defense under new head coach Robert Saleh. The signing follows other moves to bolster the defense, including acquiring Jermaine Johnson and John Franklin-Myers, as the Titans aim to improve quickly in the AFC South. Taylor’s departure from New Orleans is expected due to the Saints’ limited cap space and inability to match his projected market value.
