2026 NFL draft: Tennessee Titans select TE Jaren Kanak in Round 7

The Tennessee Titans finished off their 2026 NFL draft class by selecting Oklahoma tight end Jaren Kanak with their seventh-round pick, No. 225 overall. Kanak profiles as a special teams dynamo, who enters the draft after transitioning from a high school quarterback to college linebacker, and eventually tight end.

While there have been flashes, and he shows good hands, he is raw as a receiver and lacks the size to be an effective blocker. This pick screams John “Bones” Fassel, who would look at his varied background and skill set to potentially develop into a special-teams standout. This concludes the Titans' 2026 draft class, and general manager Mike Borgonzi appears to have once again infused some much-needed talent into the Titans roster.

There was clearly a focus on character and football acumen in this draft, along with a best-player-available approach early on. The Titans' roster currently stands at 86 players, and there will be a chance to add at least a couple more prospects before any roster moves are needed.
