The Tennessee Titans have signed veteran wide receiver Tyler Lockett to a one-year, $4 million deal. The deal came just days before the NFL Draft, adding experience to first-overall pick Cam Ward‘s receiving corps.

Since Lockett was drafted by the Seattle Seahawks in the third round of the 2015 NFL Draft, he’s been a mainstay on their offense. He has the second-most receptions (661), receiving yards (8,594) and touchdowns (61) in franchise history.

Lockett’s usage declined as the young Jaxon Smith-Njigba broke out for 1,130 yards in the 2024 season. Ten years after the Seahawks drafted him, he was released. Now, he’ll take that decade of experience to Tennessee.

Lockett adds some much-needed experience and depth to a shallow Titans receiving room. Before his addition, the Titans’ second-string wide receiver was Treylon Burks, who had four receptions for 34 yards in five games in 2024. Behind Calvin Ridley, who put up a thousand-yard season in 2024, Lockett’s skillset will be invaluable.

“I’m excited to be a Tennessee Titan!!” Lockett posted on X. “I’m super thankful and grateful. Let’s get it!! God you get all the glory!!”

The Tennessee Titans drafted Miami quarterback Cam Ward with the first overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft, which surprised nobody.

Ward, 22, has been linked to the Titans for months. Both the team and Ward have hinted that he would be the first overall pick.

“I’ve worked so hard for this moment,” Ward said immediately after being drafted. “I was just a little kid who wanted it.”

Most mock drafts had the Titans selecting Ward, and most draft analysts had Ward as the highest-ranked quarterback in the draft class.

In 2024, Ward finished third in Heisman trophy voting. He finished with 4,313 yards, 39 touchdowns and seven interceptions. His 39 touchdowns were the most for a quarterback in college football.

Ward will likely be the starter for Tennessee when week one rolls around. The Titans for the past two seasons, have primarily used Will Levis as the starting quarterback. Levis has a record of 5-16 in 21 starts.

In addition to Levis, Ward joins a quarterback room with Brandon Allen and Tim Boyle.

The Titans finished 2024 with a 3-14 record. Tennessee, which hasn’t made the playoffs since 2021, is hoping it’s found a franchise quarterback to move the team in a positive direction.
