Chargers' Elijah Molden: Traded to Chargers
The Los Angeles Chargers acquired Elijah Molden from the Titans on Wednesday in exchange for a 2026 seventh-round pick.Molden registered a career-high 73 tackles (47 solo), four passes defended and a pick-six across 15 regular-season games for the Titans in 2023. Despite the uptick in production, Molden was set to see less snaps in Tennessee's secondary with Amani Hooker, Quandre Diggs and Jamal Adams all getting work at safety, while Roger McCreary slots in at nickel corner. Molden will get a fresh start with the Chargers, and he should be utilized across multiple spots in the Bolts' secondary.

Titans' Elijah Molden: Rebounds for strong season
Elijah Molden recorded 73 total tackles with four passes defended, including an interception, and a forced fumble across 15 regular-season games with the Tennessee Titans in 2023.Molden had his 2022 season derailed by a groin injury, but he rebounded with the highest tackle total of his three-year career in 2023. He also tallied the second pick-six of his career in Week 15. As the Titans' roster is currently constructed, Molden should be projected to start at strong safety for the Titans in 2024, the final year of his rookie contract.

Titans' Elijah Molden: Another solid outing
Elijah Molden logged seven total tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Texans.The 24-year-old safety has now played 100 percent of the Tennessee Titans' defensive snaps over each of the last two weeks, and he's been fairly productive (13 total tackles). Molden has likely seen increased work on Tennessee's defense due to the team's elimination from playoff contention after its Week 15 loss to the Texans. On the year, Molden has appeared in 14 games, tallying 67 total tackles, three pass deflections and one pick-six. He'll go up against a Jaguars offense that could very well be without Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) in Week 18.

Titans' Elijah Molden: Gets pick-six vs. Texans
Elijah Molden recorded three tackles (three solo) and an interception, which he returned for a touchdown, in Sunday's 19-16 overtime loss versus the Texans.Early in the second quarter, Case Keenum wasn't on the same page as running back Dare Ogunbowale and threw a pass behind him straight into the waiting arms of Molden, who then took the ball 43 yards the other direction to the house. With Tennessee now mathematically eliminated from playoff contention, the 24-year-old d-back will probably continue to garner a significant role down the home stretch of the season.

Elijah Molden (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against Baltimore, Jim Wyatt of the Tennessee Titans' official site reports.Molden is one of three players that will not travel with the Titans to London, as he continues to recover from a lingering hamstring issue.
