Titans scheduled private workout with top Big 10 kicker

The Tennessee Titans are overturning every rock, looking to add competition and talent to their roster this offseason, and will continue that process over the next few weeks. Even after a successful free agency period, the Titans still have some holes that must be filled, and will likely focus on those in the draft, but that won’t prevent them from looking at every position in search of an upgrade. And that could mean one of the specialist positions.

In a Sports Illustrated Draft interview , Justin Melo talked with Iowa kicker Drew Stevens, projected as one of the top specialists in this class, and he mentioned an intriguing nugget about the Titans and special teams coordinator John Fassel. We had another day where us specialists sat at a table, and that was more like speed dating [meetings]. Those were limited to like 10 minutes per team table.

It’s just enough time for teams to get to know us a little bit. I did those quick meetings with all 32 teams. I had lunch with the New Orleans Saints after my pro day.

The Tennessee Titans had a private workout scheduled with me. Their special teams coordinator [John “Bones” Fassel] was interested in overseeing my pro day drills. I had some contact with the Las Vegas Raiders as well.
