Arden Key Dominates Titans Practice, Counts 7 Sacks on the Day

Key dominated whoever he went against, but for the most part, he went against starting left tackle Andre Dillard. Head coach Mike Vrabel was asked about Dillard and spent most of the answer praising Key. You can tell Vrabel is enamored by his skillset.

"Arden has offered us a lot of impact over there just in a short time," Vrabel explained. "We don't have pads on and they're not sacking the quarterback, but I know that Arden is able to mix moves. He is getting multiple moves and different looks, wiggle, long arm, chop, everything you can give him. We'll take all we can get."

Vrabel is right to point out that no one is wearing pads. Obviously, in a situation where the physicality is limited, the offensive line will be at a disadvantage and Key, who is a very athletic edge rusher, would thrive in that same situation. 

However, Key was incredibly productive the last two seasons in a limited role. As pointed out on our site before, Key had the second-most pressures of any player in the NFL the last month of the season in 2022. He only trailed Nick Bosa, the defensive player of the year.

We will take Key's performance today with a grain of necessary salt, but it is fair to get excited about what Key can bring to the Titans' defense. Based on that answer from Vrabel after practice, sounds like he is excited about Key as well.
