Levis’ second-round selection (#33 overall 2023) generated $8.73M guaranteed rookie contract. His 15 TD, 12 INT sophomore campaign demonstrates inconsistency yet maintains starter role avoiding expensive veteran quarterback replacement costs.

Simmons’ April 2023 extension ($94M over four years, $66M guaranteed) made him second-highest paid interior defender behind Aaron Donald. His 76 tackles and five sacks validate investment establishing defensive anchor through prime years.

Cap Space Windfall Enables Aggression

Tennessee’s $108M projected next-season availability represents NFL’s largest creating unprecedented opportunity. Current $19.6M space enables continued roster building around Levis’ development timeline.

Sneed’s Addition: March 2024 trade from Kansas City cost third-round pick plus immediate $76.4M extension ($44M guaranteed). His four-year deal adds elite coverage at $18.32M annual cost protecting young secondary.

Offensive Line Investment: Zeitler ($8.99M one-year), Cushenberry ($9.49M), Latham ($7.12M rookie) total $25.6M combined creating protection unit supporting Levis. JC Latham’s #7 overall pick provides franchise left tackle on cost-controlled timeline.

Ridley’s $13M Net Worth Journey

Thirty-one-year-old built modest wealth through career interruptions. His Falcons tenure ($10.9M rookie contract 2018-2021), gambling suspension (2022), Jacksonville revival ($11.1M) created foundation before Tennessee windfall.

Simmons accumulated $15-22M through $68M+ career total as Titans’ 2019 #19 overall pick. His $24M signing bonus (2023 extension) plus guaranteed money establish generational security approaching age 29.

Sneed’s $8-12M stems from Chiefs earnings ($5.6M over four years) plus Tennessee signing bonus ($24M). His Super Bowl champion pedigree justifies $19.1M AAV investment bringing playoff experience to rebuilding roster.

Next Season Cap Explosion

Tennessee’s $108M projected space enables aggressive veteran additions. Levis’ extension talks (entering final rookie year 2026) determine long-term quarterback spending allocation versus affordable backup options maintaining flexibility.

Extension Priorities: JC Latham (cost-controlled through 2028), Pollard (2027 final year) creating manageable future commitments.

Dead Cap Minimal: Current penalties total just $11.4M representing clean books. Smart contract structuring avoids perpetual void year charges enabling sustainable roster management.
