They're currently having a bit of an offseason overlap in an unexpected way with an undrafted quarterback. QB Derek Robertson is set to play for each team at their upcoming rookie minicamps, according to transactions reporter Aaron Wilson: Monmouth quarterback Derek Robertson invited to #Titans and #Jaguars rookie minicamps, per source — Aaron Wilson (@AaronWilson_NFL) April 29, 2026 MORE: Diego Pavia, Shedeur Sanders and an NFL QB problem that goes back to Tim Tebow While not common, this does happen. Teams hold their rookie minicamps on slightly different dates, which allows for players who weren't drafted to attend multiple.

It makes sense for the player, who is simply trying to impress someone enough to earn a look for the rest of the summer. And in this case, the Titans and Jaguars must figure getting a look at Robertson is worth it, and so be it if another team does, too. If one of them likes him enough, they can offer him a more firm undrafted contract to keep him around.

Robertson began his college career at Maine, where he played through the 2023 season. In that final Black Bears campaign, he had 2,933 passing yards and 25 touchdowns. In 2024 at Monmouth, he was an AP FCS All-America Honorable Mention as he threw for 3,937 yards and 31 touchdowns.
