Kylan Butler is in his fourth season with the Titans. He initially arrived in Tennessee for the 2021 season as part of the NFL Bill Walsh Diversity Coaching Fellowship and earned a full-time role in 2022. He previously spent seven years coaching at the collegiate level.

In 2023, Butler was part of an offensive coaching staff that helped Derrick Henry rank second in the NFL with 1,167 rushing yards, resulting in his second consecutive Pro Bowl appearance. Wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins registered the seventh season in franchise history in which a player recorded at least 75 receptions, 1,000 receiving yards (1,057) and seven receiving touchdowns. Meanwhile, quarterback Will Levis, running back Tyjae Spears and left guard Peter Skoronski headlined a rookie class that led the NFL in offensive snaps by rookies from Week 8 through the end of the regular season (2,072).

In 2022, Henry ranked second in the NFL with 1,538 rushing yards, and quarterback Ryan Tannehill's 94.6 passer rating was the 11th best in the league. As an offense, the Titans ranked sixth in the NFL in red-zone efficiency (64.3 percent) and first in goal-to-go efficiency (93.8 percent).

The 2021 Titans ranked fifth in rushing offense (141.4 yards per game) despite missing Henry for nine games due to injury. The offense also ranked eighth on third down (43.6 percent), fifth in the red zone (63.9 percent) and first in goal-to-go efficiency (87.5 percent).

Prior to his arrival in Tennessee, Butler spent two seasons coaching wide receivers at Morehead State University. He also served as co-special teams coordinator in 2019 and was promoted to associate head coach for 2020-21.

After Morehead State's fall 2020 season was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the team played in the spring of 2021. Butler helped wide receiver BJ Byrd earn unanimous first-team All-Pioneer League honors as the senior finished as the conference's leader with eight touchdown receptions.

Butler spent two years at Glenville (W.Va.) State College, first as running backs coach in 2017 and then as offensive coordinator/wide receivers coach in 2018.

Butler began his coaching career at his alma mater, the University of Arizona, breaking in with Rich Rodriguez's staff in 2014 and spending three total seasons as an offensive graduate assistant. He worked with the receivers while assisting with all facets of the offense and recruiting as a part of two bowl teams and one division championship team (2014).

A native of Antioch, Calif., he won a state championship at De La Salle High School prior to his career at Arizona. Butler appeared in 35 career games as a running back and on special teams for the Wildcats. He played on four bowl teams and was a founding member and vice president of Arizona's chapter of Uplifting Athletes, an organization dedicated to raising funds and awareness in support of the rare disease community. He also served as a member of Arizona's student-athlete advisory committee.

Butler earned his bachelor's degree in social behavior and human understanding in May 2013 and earned his master's in educational psychology in December 2016.

He and his wife, Brianna, have a daughter, Morgan.
