  • Titans' Elijah Molden: Rebounds for strong season

    Molden recorded 73 total tackles with four passes defended, including an interception, and a forced fumble across 15 regular-season games with the Titans in 2023.

    Molden had his 2022 season derailed by a groin injury, but he rebounded with the highest tackle total of his three-year career in 2023. He also tallied the second pick-six of his career in Week 15. As the Titans' roster is currently constructed, Molden should be projected to start at strong safety for the Titans in 2024, the final year of his rookie contract.

  • Titans' Elijah Molden: Another solid outing

    Molden logged seven total tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Texans.

    The 24-year-old safety has now played 100 percent of the Titans' defensive snaps over each of the last two weeks, and he's been fairly productive (13 total tackles). Molden has likely seen increased work on Tennessee's defense due to the team's elimination from playoff contention after its Week 15 loss to the Texans. On the year, Molden has appeared in 14 games, tallying 67 total tackles, three pass deflections and one pick-six. He'll go up against a Jaguars offense that could very well be without Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) in Week 18.

  • Titans' Elijah Molden: Gets pick-six vs. Texans

    Molden recorded three tackles (three solo) and an interception, which he returned for a touchdown, in Sunday's 19-16 overtime loss versus the Texans.

    Early in the second quarter, Case Keenum wasn't on the same page as running back Dare Ogunbowale and threw a pass behind him straight into the waiting arms of Molden, who then took the ball 43 yards the other direction to the house. With Tennessee now mathematically eliminated from playoff contention, the 24-year-old d-back will probably continue to garner a significant role down the home stretch of the season.

  • Titans' Elijah Molden: Takes over for Byard

    Molden recorded seven tackles in Sunday's 28-23 win over the Titans.

    Molden was on the field for every defensive snap in the Titans' first game since Kevin Byard was traded to Philadelphia. His seven tackles were tied for third-most on the team and his second-highest mark of the season. Assuming he can maintain the role, Molden should remain a solid source of tackles moving forward.

  • Titans' Elijah Molden: Full participant in practice

    Molden (hamstring) was a full participant in Tennessee's practice Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

    Molden did not travel to London for the team's Week 6 loss to the Ravens but is seemingly healthy again. The 24-year-old has played on both defense and special teams through four games this season compiling 20 tackles (13 solo) and a pass deflection, and he will look to add to those numbers versus Atlanta on Sunday.

  • Titans' Elijah Molden: Out Sunday

    Molden (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against Baltimore, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Molden is one of three players that will not travel with the Titans to London, as he continues to recover from a lingering hamstring issue. After sitting out Week 4 with the same injury, the 24-year-old recorded three tackles while playing on only 15 percent of Tennessee's defensive snaps during the team's Week 5 loss to Indianapolis. Matthew Jackson is likely to see an increased role this coming Sunday with Molden missing time.

  • Titans' Elijah Molden: Back to full strength

    Molden (hamstring) was a full participant at practice Thursday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

    After sitting out in Week 4 versus Cincinnati, it appears Molden will be ready to go Sunday at Indianapolis. He figures to resume a depth role in Tennessee's defensive backfield in Week 5.

  • Titans' Elijah Molden: Ruled out against Cincinnati

    Molden (hamstring) will not play in Tennessee's game against the Bengals on Sunday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

    Molden will be forced to miss his first game of the season due to a hamstring injury. The 2021 third-round pick has recorded 17 tackles (12 solo) through three games and Matthew Jackson should see increased playing time in his absence.

  • Titans' Elijah Molden: Recovered from groin injury

    Molden (groin) is a full participant at OTAs this week, Joe Rexrode of The Athletic reports.

    Molden appeared in just two games last season after battling a groin issue all year. He didn't need offseason surgery and is 100 percent for spring practices. With Kevin Byard absent from OTAs, Molden is getting some run at safety and has been approached by the coaching staff about playing a versatile role in the secondary this upcoming season.

  • Titans' Elijah Molden: Placed on IR

    Molden (groin) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday.

    Molden will make his second stint on injured reserve this season due to a groin injury that he's been dealing with since the summer. The second-year cornerback will be eligible to return after four weeks under a new rule that allows players to return from IR twice in a season. The Titans will continue to rely on Kristian Fulton, Roger McCreary and Tre Avery to shutdown opposing receivers with Molden out again.
