The Tennessee Titans<\/a>‘ receiving corps will have the vital task of helping rookie quarterback Cam Ward develop as quickly as possible.<\/p>\n

Though other factors will go into Ward’s development and ascension, having a stable and productive group of receivers can go a long way for a young quarterback. With Calvin Ridley set to lead the room yet again in 2025, is there room for another big name?<\/p>\n

There could be, apparently, as the Titans were named among the dark-horse candidates<\/a> to land Washington Commanders<\/a> star Terry McLaurin in a trade, says Bleacher Report’s Alex Kay.<\/p>\n

If the Titans want to go all-in with Ward and orchestrate a worst-to-first turnaround like the Houston Texans<\/a> and Cincinnati Bengals<\/a> have done in recent years, the front office shouldn’t hesitate to offer up a good bit of Day 2 capital along with a failed prospect who needs a change of scenery in Treylon Burks to sweeten the pot.<\/p>\n

What it would take to bring McLaurin to Nashville remains to be seen, but the Titans would have to cough up draft capital along with a new contract. The latter is the entire reason McLaurin may even be available on the block.<\/p>\n

While there’s no denying McLaurin’s talent, as he showed in 2024, there is the risk of overpaying for an aging player coming off a career season. McLaurin will turn 30 years old at the start of the 2025 regular season, but he’s also coming off the best season of his career after posting 82 receptions for 1,092 yards and 13 touchdowns.<\/p>\n

Given their need to add more talent to the receiving corps, the Titans are likely to be linked to McLaurin as a potential suitor until the situation is resolved one way or another.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Tennessee Titans‘ receiving corps will have the vital task of helping rookie quarterback Cam Ward develop as…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":195471,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2061],"tags":[247,265,228,10548,4048,227,256,427,7,221,253,20842,14091,248,267,246,88,6,35196,245,264,10549,9,266,526,394,2411,7516,7186,222,527,855,111],"class_list":{"0":"post-195470","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tennessee-titans","8":"tag-american","9":"tag-american-football","10":"tag-bengals","11":"tag-calvin","12":"tag-calvin-ridley","13":"tag-cincinnati","14":"tag-cincinnati-bengals","15":"tag-commanders","16":"tag-football","17":"tag-houston","18":"tag-houston-texans","19":"tag-hub","20":"tag-mclaurin","21":"tag-national","22":"tag-national-sports","23":"tag-neutral","24":"tag-news","25":"tag-nfl","26":"tag-nfl-hub","27":"tag-overall","28":"tag-overall-neutral","29":"tag-ridley","30":"tag-sports","31":"tag-sports-news","32":"tag-tennessee","33":"tag-tennessee-titans","34":"tag-tennesseetitans","35":"tag-terry","36":"tag-terry-mclaurin","37":"tag-texans","38":"tag-titans","39":"tag-washington","40":"tag-washington-commanders"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/195470","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=195470"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/195470\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/195471"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=195470"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=195470"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=195470"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
