Morgan Cox

Current Contract

Contract Value Index (CVI)

This signing grades out as a reasonable signing for the Tennessee Titans — the team is getting significantly more on-field production than what they're paying for. Morgan's on-field performance ranks in the upper half among NFL LSs, grading him as a solid starter at the position. His $1.5M average annual value ranks as below-market money for the LS market. The production-to-cost ratio is favorable — solid starter output at a below-market price point represents solid asset management. Morgan is squarely in his prime, which adds to the deal's upside — the team should get multiple productive seasons out of this contract. The 1-year, $1.5M deal ($188K guaranteed, 13%) keeps the commitment short, giving the team financial flexibility to move on if performance drops.

Performance Analysis

Morgan Cox earns a D+ grade as a veteran long snapper who has been one of the most consistent specialists at the position for over a decade. His clean delivery on every snap play has been a hallmark of reliability across multiple stops, most memorably in Baltimore. The Titans benefit from having a proven veteran who will never make a mistake at the position. Long snappers thrive on anonymity, and Cox has been invisible in the best possible way throughout his career. He's the kind of player who gets paid to be perfect, and he usually is.

Fan Sentiment

A quiet but sensible retention keeps proven special teams continuity in Nashville. Multiple outlets covered the re-signing, with one article questioning whether Cox was even worth bringing back. The strongest signal is Cox's remarkable 250-career-game milestone, proving rare durability at a volatile position. Titans fans largely approve, valuing stability at long snapper over unnecessary experimentation. Cox should handle snapping duties reliably again, making this a low-risk, low-reward roster decision.
