Former NFL wide receiver Chad Johnson is hosting some of the top receivers in the game this week for his first annual “Wideout Workout” in Miami. His intentions with the endeavor are to bring together some of the NFL’s top wide receivers and allow them to work on their craft ahead of the 2025 NFL season.
Johnson took to social media to announce the event and showcase some of the attendees. Among the list are some of the biggest names at the position, including Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, Jerry Jeudy, and Tyreek Hill.

However, there is one receiver at the camp that should excite fans of the Tennessee Titans: Rookie Xavier Restrepo.
From the moment the Titans landed Restrepo as an undrafted rookie free agent, he has become a fan favorite. Cam Ward’s favorite target at Miami. Restrepo’s story is well documented. A dynamic slot receiver in college, he fell out of the draft after a disastrous pre-draft process and brutal NFL Scouting Combine.
The Titans seized the chance to reunite him with Ward after the draft, and so far, the results have been positive. Restrepo made an instant impact during OTAs and minicamp, demonstrating a potent combination of athleticism and route-running savvy that overshadowed the poor testing knocked him off draft boards.

Throughout the offseason in Nashville, Restrepo has shown everything that coaches look for in a slot receiver. At this point, he appears to have a great shot at landing one of the final roster spots in the Titans’ crowded receiver room, and having a chance to refine his skills with some of the best in the NFL will only help chances to make more of an impression once camp opens on July 22.
