No. 3: Ryan Tannehill, Tennessee Titans

Ryan Tannehill has been the starting quarterback for the Tennessee Titans for the past four years and has witnessed a good amount of success over that time. However, he is getting older and missed time last season after needing ankle surgery.

In the 12 games that he did start, Tannehill threw for 2,536 yards and 13 touchdowns, but the Titans missed the playoffs for the first time since Tannehill joined the team in 2019.

Tannehill will begin the 2023 season as the starter, but with 2022 third-round pick Malik Willis and 2023 second-round pick Will Levis waiting in the wings, it would not be surprising if the Titans opted for one of them to start games this season.
