Report: Titans tap Brian Daboll to lead offense

New Titans coach Robert Saleh picked Brian Daboll to lead the team's offense.

Why it matters: Daboll, the former New York Giants coach, has the challenging task of fixing one of the NFL's worst offenses.

Selecting an offensive coordinator was one of the most crucial early decisions for Saleh, whose background is on the defensive side of the ball.

Driving the news: Saleh interviewed several potential offensive coordinators before selecting Daboll, according to ESPN.

Zoom out: Daboll has a reputation for developing quarterbacks. He was the Bills offensive coordinator during the ascent of star Josh Allen.

More recently he coached promising rookie Jaxon Dart for the Giants. Daboll was looking for work after being fired by the Giants.
With the Titans, Daboll will mentor Cam Ward, the first overall pick in last year's draft, who turned in a choppy rookie season.
