Deebo Samuel’s versatility could fit perfectly with Tennessee Titans

Yahoo Sports

The Tennessee Titans shouldn't be done addressing the wide receiver position, and Deebo Samuel is an ideal option.

Is Deebo Samuel the answer for the Tennessee Titans in free agency this offseason? Samuel’s versatility offers the Titans plenty in the open market. As a wide receiver, he makes plays in all three phases of the field.

His production has remained consistent over the last four seasons as a secondary receiver who blends seamlessly into Tennessee’s offense. Samuel recorded 727 receiving yards and five touchdown receptions in 2025 with the Washington Commanders. He was used less in the ground game last season, though his production per touch was not far off from his career averages.

The Titans need a reliable pass-catcher for quarterback Cam Ward to target when plays break down. Samuel offers a strong solution in short-yardage situations as well as in the intermediate areas of the field. Tennessee already has Calvin Ridley as its No.

1 receiver on the outside. Ridley, along with Elic Ayomanor, serves as the Titans’ primary deep threats. Wan’Dale Robinson gives Tennessee a 1,000-yard receiver from 2025 who has the skills to take pressure off Ward in short yardage when the pocket collapses.
