Fantasy Football Blog: How will firing of Brian Callahan impact Cam Ward, rest of the Titans' offense?

Details
14 October 2025

After starting the 2025 NFL season 1-5, the Tennessee Titans made a significant move to start Week 7, firing head coach Brian Callahan. He'll finish his tenure in Tennessee with a combined record of 4-19 over the span of two seasons. With this move, there are obvious fantasy football implications. Matt Harmon and Justin Boone break things down on the latest episode of The Yahoo Fantasy Forecast podcast. 

The last 4 QBs taken first overall have seen their first head coach fired during their rookie season.

Entering Week 7, the Titans offense ranks 31st in points per game (13.8) and 32nd in yards per game (232.3). There were some expectations of an improvement this season after drafting QB Cam Ward first overall in 2025. The team tried to shore up the offensive line and figured Ward would elevate the play of receiver Calvin Ridley and tight end Chig Okonkwo. Things haven't worked out and Boone now believes that there simply isn't any value left on Tennessee for fantasy purposes. 

RB Tony Pollard was brought in a season ago and is coming off over 1,000 rushing yards in 2024. He's been a disappointment so far this season and the best-case scenario for him, according to Boone, may be that the back is traded before the deadline. Rookie WR Elic Ayomanor and pass-catching back Tyjae Spears may get a boost but neither is a reliable fantasy asset. 

Harmon just doesn't see this as a very talented roster and both agree that things aren't going to get better this season with Callahan gone and Mike McCoy taking over as interim head coach. This could stunt the development of Ward as a QB and this could be rough the rest of the way.

D.J. Moore got good news on medical evaluation, Bears consider him day-to-day

14 October 2025

Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore was hospitalized after Monday night's game in Washington for what the team termed "precautionary medical attention," but the news is good today.

Bears head coach Ben Johnson said today on ESPN 1000 that Moore is doing well.

"It was precautionary. I think we got some good news on that. He should be coming back today, here, and I think he'll be day-to-day going forward. It was a groin deal that he was dealing with and I think we're going to be OK," Johnson said.

Moore caught three passes for 42 yards against the Commanders and played the entire game, and there was no indication that he was injured until the Bears announced after the game that he wouldn't be making the team flight home to Chicago.

The 28-year-old Moore is second on the Bears with 19 catches for 215 yards this season.

Titans part ways with o-line coach Bill Callahan a day after firing his son Brian

Details
14 October 2025

The Tennessee Titans are cutting ties with multiple members of the Callahan family. A day after firing Brian Callahan, the team announced it was parting ways with offensive line coach Bill Callahan, Brian's father. 

Titans interim head coach Mike McCoy made that announcement Tuesday. McCoy said Bill's departure was the only coaching change on the staff.

The move doesn't necessarily come as a surprise. Bill probably wasn't too eager to stick around after the team fired his son Monday.

Bill, a long-time NFL coach, joined the Titans' coaching staff shortly after the team hired Brian in 2024. Despite being under contract with the Cleveland Browns, Bill was allowed to leave the team to coach with his son. 

Bill has been a consistent presence in the NFL since the 1995 season. After starting his NFL coaching career as an offensive line coach with the Philadelphia Eagles, Bill took over as the Oakland Raiders' offensive coordinator.

He was eventually promoted into a head-coaching role with the Raiders, leading the team to a 15-17 record before he was fired after the 2003 season. Bill then spent the next four seasons coaching Nebraska. 

He returned to the NFL in 2008, and has filled a variety of coaching roles with five teams since then. Bill briefly got another head-coaching opportunity in 2019, taking over in Washington after Jay Gruden was fired. Bill led the team to a 3-8 record down the stretch, and the franchise opted to go in a different direction in the offseason.

Given his knowledge and experience coaching offensive linemen, Bill, 69, could still hook on with another team and continue his coaching career. Brian will likely also get another opportunity, though he may have to take a coordinator job after going 4-19 with the Titans. 

Both men will likely have to wait until the offseason to find another opportunity.
