Former Tennessee Titans defensive coordinator Dean Pees announced his retirement shortly after the team’s 35-24 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship earlier this year, and now his son will be departing from Nashville as well.
Defensive quality control coach Matt Pees left the team on Monday, accepting a head coaching job at Findlay High School in Ohio.
Pees took to Twitter with the news this week, and is looking forward to returning to the state.
This marks just one of many departures from the Titans’ coaching staff this offseason, in addition to the losses of Kerry Coombs and Tyrone McKenzie.
The team has done a good job of filling those voids as they prepare for the upcoming 2020 season.
One of the most notable things to consider for the Titans moving forward is that they likely won’t hire a defensive coordinator as they finalized the coaching staff earlier this month.
The way it looks right now, coach Mike Vrabel is expected to have a heavy hand in the defense when the team takes the field again.
It will be interesting to see how that shakes out, and if the Titans choose to change their approach ahead of time.
