Calvin Ridley Calvin Ridley Returns to 7-on-7 drills
Thu, Jun 11, 2026, 5:09 PM
Ridley (leg) took his first 7-on-7 reps of the offseason Thursday, Nick Suss of The Tennessean reports.
Analysis: Coming back from last year's fibula fracture, Ridley had previously been limited to individual drills and stretching during OTAs. He still hasn't done full-team work, but that should come at the start of training camp, if not at mandatory minicamp June 16-17. The 31-year-old wideout restructured his contract in March, shortly after the Titans signed Wan'Dale Robinson to a four-year deal. The team then drafted Carnell Tate fourth overall, completing a makeover of last year's undermanned WR room. Ridley doesn't have NFL experience working as anything other than the first or second option in a passing game, but that might be his new reality in Tennessee, assuming he even has enough left in the tank to lock down a top-three role at WR. |

Calvin Ridley Calvin Ridley Participating in OTAs on Monday
Mon, Jun 8, 2026, 1:06 PM
Ridley (leg) is participating in Monday's practice, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: After being held out at the beginning of OTAs last month, Ridley has his helmet while running routes and catching passes Monday. The veteran wideout suffered a broken fibula Week 11 last season and now is seven months removed from the injury, so he should be at or near 100 percent. Ridley has much stiffer competition for targets in 2026 after the Titans signed Wan'Dale Robinson in free agency before using the No. 4 overall pick in April's draft on Carnell Tate. |

Nicholas Singleton Nicholas Singleton Participating in team drills
Tue, Jun 2, 2026, 10:29 AM
Singleton (foot) has been participating in team drills at OTAs, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: SIngleton suffered a Jones fracture in his foot at the Senior Bowl back in January but was deemed fully healthy ahead of the NFL Draft in April. While medically cleared, it sounds like the Titans are bringing the rookie running back along slowly and not completely unleashing him during spring practices, aiming to have him 100 percent ready for the start of training camp in July. Singleton is expected to compete for snaps and touches behind Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears under new OC Brian Daboll. |

Cam Ward Cam Ward Dropped 10 pounds since last season
Fri, May 22, 2026, 11:29 AM
Ward noted Thursday that he's he's lost 10 pounds during the offseason by focusing on his diet, Turron Davenport of ESPN reports.
Analysis: "I think it'll help me with durability...just being faster, getting up in the pocket, and trying to play my speed," said Ward, who Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site indicates has recovered from an AC joint sprain in his throwing shoulder suffered in Week 18 last season. With that in mind, coach Robert Saleh said Thursday of the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, "his arm's perfectly healthy. He's slinging the ball. I mean, he's got some good velocity on it." As the coming campaign approaches, Ward will be working with a WR corps that welcomes back Calvin Ridley, Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike, and that was notably bolstered by the signing of free agent Wan'Dale Robinson and addition of Carnell Tate via the No. 4 overall pick in the 2026 Draft. |

No lingering injury
Thu, May 21, 2026, 6:56 PM
Williams (shoulder) was a full participant at Thursday's practice, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Williams suffered an AC joint injury in his right shoulder during the season finale last year, but there are no lingering effects to start the offseason program. The 2024 seventh-round pick played just 79 defensive snaps over 16 gamers last year. With Arden Key with the Colts now, Williams could push for an increased role in 2026, and he should remain useful on special teams regardless. |

No limitations at practice
Thu, May 21, 2026, 6:51 PM
Hooker (ankle) was a full participant at Thursday's practice, Julian Mininsohn of WKRN News 2 reports.
Analysis: Hooker missed the 2025 season finale due to an ankle injury, but it didn't linger into the offseason program. The veteran safety is locked into a starting role in 2026 after recording 81 tackles (58 solo), eight pass breakups and 1.0 sacks through 16 games last year. |

Full speed ahead
Thu, May 21, 2026, 6:48 PM
Winston (hamstring) was a full participant at practice Thursday, Buck Reising of 104-5 The Zone reports.
Analysis: Winston finished his rookie season on injured reserve with a hamstring injury, but he's back to full strength now. The third-round pick played 10 games (four starts) last year and finished with 34 tackles (21 solo), 1.0 sacks and two pass breakups. With Xavier Woods out the door, Winston will compete with Tony Adams for the starting free safety job. |

Calvin Ridley Calvin Ridley Not practicing at OTAs
Thu, May 21, 2026, 2:48 PM
Ridley (fibula) is not practicing at OTAs this week, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Ridley suffered a season-ending broken fibula in the Titans' Week 11 loss to the Texans last November and is still working his way back. The 31-year-old has gotten by on pure volume in his three seasons since serving a season-long gambling suspension in 2022, but the Titans have added significant target competition this offseason in the form of slot man Wan'Dale Robinson and No. 4 overall pick Carnell Tate. Now on the wrong side of 30 and playing under a new coaching staff that didn't sign him, Ridley could easily finish third on the team in opportunities behind both Robinson and Tate. He's not a particularly exciting fantasy target for 2026. |

Gunnar Helm Gunnar Helm Past toe injury
Thu, May 21, 2026, 2:41 PM
Helm (toe) is participating in OTAs this week, Buck Reising of AtoZ Sports Nashville reports.
Analysis: Helm missed the Titans' regular-season finale back in January but appears to be back to full health after compiling 44 catches for 357 yards and two touchdowns on 55 targets as a rookie last season. With Chig Okonkwo now with the Commanders, Helm looks poised to win the TE1 job with the Titans this summer. His main competition for playing time will come from blocking types Daniel Bellinger and Kylen Granson. |

Will Levis Will Levis Participating in OTAs
Thu, May 21, 2026, 2:36 PM
Levis (shoulder) is participating in OTAs this week, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Levis missed all of last season after undergoing shoulder surgery last summer. With Cam Ward locked in atop the depth chart and Mitchell Trubisky signed earlier this offseason to serve as the veteran QB2, it's unclear what Levis' future looks like in Tennessee. The team could look to trade him ahead of Week 1 if he's able to produce some quality tape during the preseason. |

Cam Ward Cam Ward Deemed 100 percent healthy
Thu, May 21, 2026, 11:07 AM
Coach Robert Saleh said Thursday that Ward (shoulder) is "perfectly healthy" to begin OTAs, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Ward sustained a sprained AC joint in his right, throwing shoulder in the Titans' Week 18 loss to the Jaguars last season but avoided surgery and seems to be 100 percent for the offseason program. The No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 Draft, Ward started all 17 regular-season games as a rookie and completed 323 of 540 pass attempts (59.8 percent) for 3,169 yards (5.9 yards per attempt), 15 touchdowns and seven interceptions. He also absorbed a league-high 55 sacks. The Titans have done quite a bit to upgrade Ward's supporting cast this offseason, first signing Wan'Dale Robinson before using the No. 4 overall pick in the 2026 Draft on Carnell Tate. Tennessee also signed offensive linemen Austin Schlottmann, Cordell Volson and Austin Deculus in free agency. |

Courtney Jackson Courtney Jackson Lands with Titans
Fri, May 8, 2026, 7:42 PM
The Titans claimed Jackson off waivers from the Giants on Friday.
Analysis: Jackson spent the 2025 season on the Seahawks' practice squad before signing with the Giants in February. He'll now get another chance with the Titans. The 25-year-old had a mediocre college career and is slightly undersized at 5-foot-11, 179 pounds, making him a likely candidate for the practice squad. |

Hank Beatty Hank Beatty Lands in Tennessee
Thu, Apr 30, 2026, 6:51 PM
Beatty signed with the Titans on Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: The Illinois product caught 64 passes for 826 yards in 2025, ranking in the top five in the Big Ten in both categories. Now, he'll try to compete for a roster spot with the Titans. |

Tyren Montgomery Tyren Montgomery Signs with Tennessee
Thu, Apr 30, 2026, 6:47 PM
Montgomery signed with the Titans as an undrafted free agent Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: The John Carroll product enjoyed a big season in 2025, recording 119 catches for 1,528 yards and 15 touchdowns. Now, he'll get his NFL chance with Tennessee. |

Picked by Titans
Sat, Apr 25, 2026, 4:59 PM
The Titans selected Kanak in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 225th overall.
Analysis: Kanak spent his entire four-year collegiate career in Norman with Oklahoma, but it wasn't until his senior season that he saw the field. He didn't disappoint in 2025, compiling 44 catches for 533 yards while dropping just one pass. Kanak is severely undersized for the tight end position at just 6-foot-2, 234 pounds, but he at least makes up for that with a 4.52 40-yard dash time. It remains to be seen if he can stick at tight end in the long run, but he has plenty of special-teams work on his resume and will likely be asked to contribute on that front in Nashville this fall. |

Drafted by Titans
Sat, Apr 25, 2026, 3:37 PM
The Titans selected Coogan in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 194th overall.
Analysis: Coogan (6-foot-5, 311 pounds) probably profiles as a swing interior backup for the Titans after starting at center for Indiana in 2025. Coogan started games at both guard and center for Notre Dame in the two years before that, but more as moveable depth than an entrenched starting role in either case. Players like him are normally better with technique than athletic talent, and unlike earlier short-arm centers drafted (Logan Jones and Sam Hecht), Coogan doesn't have standout tested athleticism to offset his lack of reach (31 and 1/8-inch arms). |

Selected by Titans
Sat, Apr 25, 2026, 3:11 PM
The Titans selected Marshall in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 184th overall.
Analysis: Marshall is a gap-splitting defensive tackle out of Baylor who is undersized (6-foot-3, 293 pounds) to the point that he might mostly play in passing-down situations. What makes Marshall interesting is his burst off the line. Though he might be light, Marshall's 4.88-second 40 is still very fast for his size. |

Bound for Tennessee
Sat, Apr 25, 2026, 2:15 PM
The Titans selected Singleton in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 165th overall.
Analysis: Singleton, out of Penn State, boasts the size (6-foot, 219 pounds) and explosiveness of many of the backs going in the early rounds of the draft. However, some of the hype died down in 2025 after he managed only 4.5 yards per carry en route to 549 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns on 123 totes. He's an excellent receiver out of the backfield as well, amassing 102 catches for 987 yards and nine touchdowns over his four-year college career. However, Singleton struggles to find openings at the line and doesn't sport the necessary patience for things to develop. He also struggles a bit in pass blocking. Singleton has the raw talent to potentially develop into a contributor on offense, but he may be limited mostly to special teams as a rookie. Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears headline the Titans' running back room, but Singleton could usurp Michael Carter for the No. 3 spot on the depth chart with a good showing in camp. |

Selected by Tennessee
Sat, Apr 25, 2026, 1:12 PM
The Titans selected Carmona in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 142nd overall.
Analysis: Carmona was a starting left tackle in three of his five college seasons before transitioning to left guard in 2025, when he was named to the All-SEC Second-Team. The Arkansas product doesn't stand out for his physical traits compared to other offensive linemen in the draft, but he has the footwork and quick hands to keep up with opposing defenders, even if he's caught a step behind. Carmona gives the Titans depth on the offensive line, with Peter Skoronski and Dan Moore anchored in as the starting left guard and left tackle, respectively, for Tennessee. |

Picked by Tennessee
Fri, Apr 24, 2026, 8:06 PM
The Titans selected Hill in the second round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 60th overall.
Analysis: Hill (6-foot-2, 238 pounds) is a very athletic linebacker out of Texas (4.51-second 40, 37-inch vertical, 125-inch broad jump), and one who put up big playmaking numbers. He posted 31.5 tackles for loss, 17 sacks and three interceptions in three years, so if he can brush up on his fundamentals Hill could prove a high-upside pickup for the Titans. |
