The Tennessee Titans announced the signing of 17 undrafted free agents on Friday, one of which was SMU product and wide receiver, Reggie Roberson.
Roberson is someone we’ve pegged as one of the Titans’ undrafted free agent signings with the best chance to make the roster, both because of his skill set and with the Titans’ shaky situation at wide receiver.
If not for injuries during his collegiate career, Roberson might have been drafted, making him a potential steal and one of the team’s most intriguing UDFA signings.

Dane Brugler, The Athletic
Positional rank: 38 out of 48
STRENGTHS: Outstanding speed (when healthy) … uses an explosive top gear to separate from coverage or pursuit … speed releases allow him to quickly enter his routes and win at the snap … snaps off patterns with foot quickness in/out of his breaks … tracks the deep ball well … steady hands to make clean grabs and put the ball away … can make the first man miss thanks to his acceleration … return duties were sporadic, but has a 98-yard kick-return touchdown on his résumé … named a senior captain and overcame the adversity of multiple season-ending injuries.
WEAKNESSES: Didn’t look quite the same in 2021 compared to pre-injury tape … didn’t face much press in college and will face an adjustment period vs. bump-andrun NFL corners … wasn’t asked to run a full route tree in the SMU offense … strong hands, but focus drops were a slight issue in 2021 … doesn’t appear comfortable with crowded catch points … not very elusive in the open field, lacking fluid change-of-direction skills to pile up missed tackles … suffered back-to-back season-ending injuries with a right foot injury (November 2019) and torn ACL in his left knee (October 2020).
SUMMARY: A four-year starter at SMU, Roberson…
