Contract negotiations are a 2 way street. Titans can’t control what Tannehill feels he is worthy of. I’m sure want to bring him back but if he’s asking for too much or too long of a deal gotta explore other options.
This is why you don't believe everything that you hear. Especially during this time of the yea
The "source" of this "rumor"?

"I know ESPN fantasy guru Matthew Berry a bit. I tried to get him to visit with the Midday 180 which we were in Indianapolis for the scouting combine. We couldn’t work out the timing.
Berry works the combine to gather as much info that will inform fantasy players, as that’s the lane where he’s the preeminent guy in the country.
Tuesday, after he gathered up his notes and thoughts, he wrote: “20(ish) things I learned at the 2020 NFL combine.”
And it included this:
“A Titans insider told me he expects the team to franchise Derrick Henry (if they can't come to a long-term deal) and let Ryan Tannehill test the market.”
I crossed paths with Berry a couple of times, and the longest we chatted was for five minutes at the popular restaurant Harry and Izzy’s where he asked me for my thinking on what the Titans would do regarding Derrick Henry and Ryan Tannehill.
Honestly, I am not certain I’m not the Titans insider he references. I certainly said that about Henry. I would have said they could wind up letting Tannehill riskily test the market if they are engaged with Brady and/or can’t get a long-term deal done.
My intention here isn’t to knock Berry. It’s to inform you, because I’ve seen several of you say based on what he wrote, “Well, they’re letting Tannehill get to market.
Really? Let's think this through.
Why this far removed from the start of free agency would the Titans have a) have decided such a thing; b) told someone and; c) had that someone be Berry?
Frankly, it doesn’t make much sense and you’ve simply got to guard against putting too much stock into such things.
I doubt much is written in stone with time remaining to negotiate with Henry and Tannehill still remaining and with there still being uncertainty regarding the CBA – will the Titans be operating under new rules with one tag available or old rules with two?
Information flow regarding the Titans, I feel confident, is coming from the agent side of things, not from the team side. Who on the team side knows what the plan is at this point? It’s reasonable to think it’s all of two people, Jon Robinson and Mike Vrabel."

Right now it is expected to pass. The good start players/vets hate it but the vast majority of the league want what it gives them.
3 years 27m make it happen jrob, thats a solid deal for us
in no world are we paying a 43 year old 6mil more than tanne lol. i dont think brady would demand that much tho

The gamble was taken when we got Tannehill, low risk but still a gamble.
Now... they may want to "let it ride!"
Yes agree. Now that he's here and performed well extend him and let's stop all the Brady talk
Why are people posting articles about Tanny wanting to resign hopes things work out etc etc. What's he suppose to say? He wants to get paid. It's about being consistent, can Tanny reproduce what he did last year? If Henry goes down or starts slow can Tanny carry the team. These are the things jrob is thinking about.
Considering we were on our way to a top 5 pick in the draft and ended up in the AFC championship game after he took over, I'd say that he can carry a team pretty well
People seem to forget we needed help to get into the playoffs and Henry decided to turn it up to 11 once in the playoffs
And that we had a couple of wins that ended on goal line stands by the defense.
We arent using Tom, Tom is using us
