The Tennessee Titans have made their fifth-round pick in the 2024 NFL draft, with the team selecting cornerback Jarvis Brownlee Jr. out of Louisville at No. 146 overall.
The Titans have already invested a ton in their cornerbacks room after the trade for L’Jarius Sneed and the signing of Chidobe Awuzie, both of whom join slot cornerback Roger McCreary.
But clearly general manager Ran Carthon and Co. figured one more couldn’t hurt, which makes sense considering their depth options were shaky.
Here’s more on Brownlee Jr., per Lance Zierlein of NFL.com.
Aggressive press cornerback with average size but above-average competitive fire. Scouts say Brownlee made a point of working hard on his body and his approach to improve his chances on the next level, and he did just that. He’s extremely rugged and physical over the first 5 yards to disrupt route timing and can close the catch window if he’s in position. Brownlee is just average as the route expands in man and could be prone to penalties and allowing explosive plays down the field. There is no lack of toughness in his run support, and he’s an easy fit on special teams. Brownlee could have teams targeting him on Day 3 as a nickel defender with the potential to bump outside.
Now, the best reactions from the Titans’ fifth-round pick.
