Titans Rookies Shine in Minicamp

On May 2nd, Day 2 of the Titans' rookie mini-cam went down on May 2nd, 2026, at the Vanderbilt

Health Football Center in Nashville.

A draft pick stuck mostly to conditioning work, keeping things low-key with cameras around,

while 11 undrafted free agents, 5 veterans, and 58 tri-out players got after it on the

field.

Tri-out quarterbacks like Derrick Robertson from Monmouth, Kaidan Salter from Colorado,

and Cade McNamara from East Tennessee shone in 7 on 7.

Drills with Robertson hitting 11 of 12 passes, receivers such as Xavier Restrepo and Brock

Rex Steiner, snag touchdown grabs, Clemson Corner, Jettin Lucas picked off a pass, and

a few others like, UCLA Safety Key, Lawrence made plays too.

That agility drill from Specialteens coach John Fassel blew up online, racking up millions

of views on X after folks questioned its purpose, but it's all about spot and quit

movement from those tri-out guys.

New defensive backs coach Mark Juan Manuel brought high energy, coaching, and motivating

the rookies hard.

Coordinators Brian DeBull, Gus Bradley, and Fassel chatted with reporters beforehand, praising

first-rounder Carnail Tate, hyping quarterback Cam.

Ward's offseason, and explaining the focus on athleticism over schemes right now.

A couple trial players like receiver Matthew Henry had to dip early with trainers.

rookies wrap up tomorrow and head home, linking back up with the vets in a week for the full

offseason program, building that foundation step-by-step.
