The Tennessee Titans signed 17 undrafted free agents recently, one of which was Texas A&M defensive lineman, Jayden Peevy.
In five years with the Aggies, Peevy played in 49 games, tallying 137 tackles, including 19 for loss, 6.5 sacks, one interception and seven passes defended.
Peevy, who was projected to be drafted by some experts, is one among the Titans’ undrafted free agent signings with the best chance to make the 53-man roster out of training camp.
