Former FSU quarterback to attend NFL rookie minicamp as wide receiver

โ€ขYahoo Sports

Tommy Castellanos has been invited to the Tennessee Titans and Miami Dolphins and NFL rookie minicamps, but as a wide receiver.

Former Florida State quarterback Tommy Castellanos will attend the Tennessee Titans rookie minicamp, just not as a quarterback. According to Jordan Schultz, he has accepted an invitation as a wide receiver and will also attend the Miami Dolphins rookie minicamp as a wideout. It was reported prior to the 2026 NFL Draft that he was drawing interest from teams as a wide receiver.

While he has never played wide receiver, he has been training at both positions and did some wide receiver drills during FSU's Pro Day this spring, and could fit well in the slot due to his athleticism and limitations as a passer. At 5-foot-11, he lacks the height NFL teams covet and has always struggled with accuracy, completeting 58. 5% of his passes during his career.

However, his rushing ability, which is built on his quickness, has been key throughout his career and could translate to the slot. Castellanos has played in 38 games during his time at FSU, Boston College, and UCF, throwing for 6,449 yards, 48 touchdowns, and 28 interceptions. He has also rushed for 1,984 yards and 24 touchdowns, averaging 4.

3 yards per carry. Interesting one: Florida State QB Tommy Castellanos has accepted an invite to #Titans rookie minicamp, but heโ€™ll be listed as a WR, per sources. Iโ€™m told he also plans to attend the #Dolphins rookie minicamp.
