Tennessee Titans’ former General Manager, Ran Carthon, has filed a lawsuit against team owner Amy Adams Strunk, alleging that the franchise failed to pay him two months of salary before terminating his contract. The legal dispute centers around Carthon’s dismissal after just one season with the team, following a turbulent 2023 campaign where the Titans missed the playoffs.
Carthon’s lawsuit asserts that he was entitled to two months’ worth of compensation under the terms of his contract, which he claims was not honored after his firing. The GM’s legal team argues that the Titans breached their contractual obligations by withholding the agreed-upon salary despite Carthon’s performance during his brief tenure. The lawsuit seeks payment for the outstanding salary and other potential damages.
The Titans have not publicly commented on the lawsuit, but Carthon’s legal team contends that the issue goes beyond financial compensation. They argue that his abrupt dismissal, along with the withholding of salary, reflects a larger pattern of mismanagement and broken promises within the franchise’s front office. Carthon’s departure has sparked criticism from some corners, particularly regarding the handling of roster decisions and the team’s inability to find sustained success.
This legal battle adds to the ongoing tension between the ownership and the management, highlighting issues of accountability and fairness within the organization. It is unclear how this lawsuit will impact the Titans’ future decisions, but it has certainly raised questions about the handling of executive contracts in professional football.
