7 players creating positive buzz

Training camp for the 2022 Tennessee Titans is well underway and there’s been plenty of positive buzz going around during the first week-plus of practices.

After dealing with multiple injury-riddled and/or ineffective rookie draft classes the past two years, it’s been nice to see practically the entire class making their presence felt in some capacity.

The rookies aren’t the only ones who have stood out early in camp, though. Tennessee also has plenty of veteran players who are preparing for the upcoming season by practicing at a high level on a daily basis.

With the Titans approaching their third week of training camp, we’re going to highlight players who have been garnering a lot of positive publicity as of late thanks to their performances on the practice field.

With all that said, let’s take a closer look at seven players who have stood out the most since since training camp began.

After a tumultuous offseason that saw the Titans’ first-round pick get overly criticized for conditioning issues in the spring, Treylon Burks has been one of the most consistent players throughout training camp.

By all accounts, Burks has routinely been showing up in every aspect of practice, such as individual, one-on-one’s, seven-on-sevens, and full-team periods (11-on-11).

After months of prematurely having his work ethic questioned, Tennessee’s rookie receiver took accountability for his issue and has stacked several good days together and seems destined for a big role within the Titans’ offense.

It should also be noted that Burks has been taking reps at punt returner, and it’s easy to see why.

The rookie wideout has a phenomenal skill set that includes a special blend of size, speed, strength, and physicality. The Arkansas native is a tough tackle in the open field, and it would be wise for the Titans to get their young talent involved as much as possible.

Burks’ most notable issue thus far has been an occasional drop on catchable targets. Nonetheless, there’s been plenty more encouraging signs than not as we rapidly approach the season opener against the New York Giants on Sept. 11.

The next step for Burks’ development is to translate the success he’s had in practice over to the preseason games.
