The Tennessee Titans have drafted their first wide receiver of the 2024 NFL Draft in the sixth round, selecting Tulane wideout Jha’Quan Jackson with pick No. 182.

The Titans bolstered their wide receivers room with the signing of Calvin Ridley, who will now form an impressive one-two punch with DeAndre Hopkins.

However, the Titans’ depth options behind those two are questionable, which is why adding another player to the wide receivers room made sense. Jackson can also serve as a returner.

Here’s more on the 5-foot-9, 188-pound slot receiver, per Lance Zierlein of NFL.com:

Undersized slot receiver offering the versatility to create chunk-play opportunities over all three levels. Jackson is slight of frame and plays with slightly below-average competitiveness as a ball-winner when confronted. He has the speed and separation burst to get open but will need to prove he can become a more skillful route runner to uncover against NFL competition. Inconsistent hands are a concern at this stage. Jackson has gadget potential and can compete for a role as a punt returner, but the league is filled with good athletes at the slot, so he will need to find a way to separate from the pack.

Here are the reactions.
