Per NFL insider Jordan Schultz, former Detroit Lions<\/a> quarterback Hendon Hooker is headed to the Music City. Hooker is signing with the Tennessee Titans<\/a> as he returns to the state where his play for the Tennessee Volunteers<\/a> morphed him into one of the top quarterbacks in the 2023 NFL draft.<\/p>\n

Hooker, a third-round pick by the Lions in the 2023 NFL draft, was waived by Detroit at the end of last August. The 6-foot-3, 221-pound signal-caller spent almost all of last season on the Carolina Panthers<\/a>‘ and New York Jets<\/a>‘ practice squads.<\/p>\n

Hooker, 28, has appeared in just three NFL games in his career, completing 6-of-9 passes for 62 yards. In his two seasons at Tennessee, Hooker passed for 6,080 yards and 58 touchdowns against just five interceptions.<\/p>\n
