Titans Cornerback L’Jarius Sneed Offers Insight to Young Teammate
The Tennessee Titans’ cornerback room is buzzing with mentorship as veteran L’Jarius Sneed takes a young player under his wing.
A Seasoned Presence
In his sixth NFL season and second with the Titans, Sneed has established himself as a key figure in the secondary. His experience and skill have made him the team’s leading cornerback, and his colleagues, particularly the younger members, look to him for guidance.
Conversations with Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
Sneed has been particularly focused on second-year pro Jarvis Brownlee Jr., who faced challenges during the Titans’ opening game against the Denver Broncos, where he struggled with penalties. Reflecting on his own journey, Sneed shared his insights with reporters, emphasizing the importance of maintaining composure amidst the pressures of the game.
“I was once that guy,” Sneed remarked. “I was an aggressive corner. I used to always get flagged. I just tell him to keep his composure when you do get flagged. It comes with the game, and you just get better.”
Building Character and Skills
Sneed’s approach to mentorship highlights a crucial aspect of professional sports: the ability to learn from setbacks. His advice to Brownlee reflects not only a focus on performance but also on personal growth. By encouraging his younger teammate to remain calm and focused, Sneed is helping to instill the resilience needed to thrive in the NFL.
As the Titans continue their season, the bond between Sneed and Brownlee stands as a testament to the value of experience and leadership within the team. With Sneed’s guidance, Brownlee has the opportunity to refine his skills and emerge as a stronger player on the field.
