The Tennessee Titans have selected Ohio State wide receiver Carnell Tate with the No. 4 overall pick in the NFL Draft. According to reports from the draft, Tate is the first wide receiver to be taken off the board in tonight's opening round.
Tate joins the Titans following a collegiate career with the Buckeyes where he emerged as a key contributor in a high-powered offense. During the 2023 season, Tate appeared in all 13 games, recording 18 receptions for 264 yards and one touchdown. His selection at No. 4 overall makes him the latest in a consistent pipeline of Ohio State wideouts to be drafted in the first round.
The move addresses a primary roster need for Tennessee, as the team looks to provide more weapons for its passing game. By selecting Tate, the Titans have opted for the draft's first receiver, marking the highest the franchise has drafted the position in recent history. The addition is expected to provide immediate depth to a receiving corps that the front office has sought to revamp through the draft.
