Tennessee Titans did not invite any veterans for a tryout at rookie minicamp

The Tennessee Titans held their final session of rookie minicamp on Saturday, and unlike last season, no veterans were present.

While this is more of an orientation weekend focused more on acclimating the young players to life in the NFL, some veterans can attend on a try-out basis. In 2024, head coach Brian Callahan invited five veterans to attend rookie mincamp: DL Caleb Sampson, OLB Shane Ray, ILB Mike Jones, CB William Jackson III, and WR Edward “EJ” Hicks.

Although none were initially signed directly out of the rookie minicamp, Tennessee eventually would sign Ray, leading into training camp.

Callahan mentioned that he was focused on the rookies this season and did not invite any veterans to the minicamp. The Titans are not scheduled to run team sessions during the camp; instead, they plan to hone in on individual or positional drills centered on acclimating the rookies to the NFL.

After the on-field sessions, the rookies will break into meetings as they continue preparing to join the rest of the veterans during OTAs starting Monday in Nashville.
