Titans CEO apologizes to fans for abysmal start — but still believes in Robert Saleh

The Tennessee Titans, mired in a dismal 0-5 start to the 2026 NFL season, have taken a rare step of publicly acknowledging their struggles to frustrated fans. CEO Burke Nihill issued a direct apology on Friday, admitting the franchise’s failure to deliver competitive football while reaffirming confidence in head coach Robert Saleh and general manager Mike Borgonzi.

The team, one of just three squads in the league without a single win, sits with a -51 point differential and averages fewer than 12 points per game, underscoring the severity of their early-season woes. Nihill emphasized organizational stability, stating that Saleh and Borgonzi have the full support needed to turn the franchise around, though he acknowledged the emotional toll of the winless campaign on both players and staff.

Meanwhile, rookie quarterback Cam Ward, the No. 1 overall pick in 2025, has faced mounting pressure to produce results amid the team’s struggles, dismissing the notion of accepting defeat with a defiant stance: 'The record may say we’re losing, but we’re not losers.'
