The Tennessee Titans finished 6-11 last season, but they got an opportunity to see Will Levis, and he left a good impression. The franchise was aggressive in the offseason, and after firing Mike Vrabel, they brought in an offensive-minded head coach, Brian Callahan, to further help their young quarterback.
The Titans signed Calvin Ridley and Tyler Boyd in free agency to add more talent around DeAndre Hopkins at the wide receiver position. They also addressed their offensive line issue by drafting JC Latham with the seventh overall pick in this year's draft.
Boyd worked with Callahan in Cincinnati, where he played well behind Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. Will he be the Titans' WR3 this season behind Hopkins and Ridley, or will Treylon Burks get a chance to redeem himself? Let's take a look at the latest update on the Titans' depth chart.

Who is the Tennessee Titans' WR3?
As of now, Boyd is the WR3 for the Tennessee Titans. The former Bengals wideout signed a one-year $2.4 million deal with the franchise this offseason and has the chance to earn a better deal next offseason by performing for the Titans.
Burks is still in the mix, but things didn't look good for him earlier in the offseason. Callahan said earlier that he would have to earn his place on the special teams to be part of the game-day roster, but he has impressed in the training camp.
Burks will likely start the season as the Titans' WR4, but he can work his way toward playing more snaps. He was the 18th overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, and the Titans will give him more time to prove his value to the franchise.

Who Should I Draft in Fantasy Football?
Both Burks and Boyd are unlikely to contribute much this season based on fantasy output; however, due to his connection with the head coach, Boyd might be the right answer.
The 29-year-old wideout had 67 catches for 667 yards and scored two touchdowns in 17 games for the Bengals last season and can have similar production with the Titans.
Boyd has always been a contributor on his teams, and before the arrival of Higgins and Chase, he had two 1,000+ yard seasons with the Bengals. Callahan has trust in him, and Boyd will be put in much more positions to succeed than Burks this year.
