Reggie McKenzie enters his first season with the Titans as a Vice President/Football Advisor.

McKenzie spent the past six seasons (2019 – 24) with the Miami Dolphins as Senior Personnel Executive, assisting General Manager Chris Grier and Assistant General Manager Marvin Allen in national college and pro scouting.

In joining the Titans, McKenzie returns to his home state, where he was raised in Knoxville, was an all-state linebacker and valedictorian at Austin-East High School, and played linebacker at the University of Tennessee from 1981-84. McKenzie was inducted into the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame in 2018.

After a professional playing career that included time with the Los Angeles Raiders (1985-88), Phoenix Cardinals (1989-90) and San Francisco 49ers (1992), he spent 1993 as a graduate assistant for the Volunteers.

In 1994, McKenzie embarked on a career working in NFL front offices that is now entering its 32nd campaign. He totaled 18 seasons (1994 - 2011) with the Green Bay Packers, rising in the ranks from Pro Personnel Assistant (1994-96) to Director of Pro Personnel (1997-2007) and finally Director of Football Operations (2008-11). In his final role with the team, McKenzie oversaw Green Bay's scouting efforts as well as evaluating current players and potential free agents, working closely with the head coach and general manager in day-to-day transactions and in preparation for the NFL Draft. During his time in Green Bay, the team earned eight division titles, three conference championships and two Super Bowls (XXXI and XLV), while totaling the second-best record (185-103) in the NFL over that period.

In 2012, the Raiders hired McKenzie as General Manager, a role he maintained for seven seasons (2012-18). Oakland's first general manager since Al Davis assumed the role in 1963, McKenzie was named the NFL's Executive of the Year by Sporting News, The MMQB and the PFWA (Pro Football Writers Association) in 2016 as the Raiders posted a 12-4 record and their first playoff appearance in 14 years. The players drafted during McKenzie's tenure include 2016 AP Defensive Player of the Year linebacker Khalil Mack (2014), quarterback Derek Carr (2014), and wide receiver Amari Cooper (2015), the latter two receiving three Pro Bowl honors, respectively, while under McKenzie. The Raiders also signed offensive tackle Donald Penn (2014) and offensive guard Kelechi Osemele (2016) in free agency during McKenzie's tenure. The two veterans were each selected to the Pro Bowl in 2016 and 2017, with Osemele receiving first-team All-Pro honors in 2016.

McKenzie is married to June, a retired attorney. The couple has two daughters, Jasmin and Mahkayla, and two sons, Kahlil and Jalen. Kahlil attended Tennessee and was drafted by Kansas City in 2018 and Jalen attended Southern California and most recently played for Las Vegas in 2024. McKenzie's twin brother, Raleigh, also played 16 seasons in the NFL and was inducted into the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame alongside McKenzie in 2018.
