NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Tennessee Titans
waived injured receiver Treylon Burks on Monday, two days after
the former first-round draft pick injured his right shoulder
while making a diving catch in practice.
Burks was the Titans’ first-round draft pick at No. 18 overall
in 2022, a selection acquired by trading Pro Bowl wide receiver
A.J. Brown to Philadelphia. Burks was hurt more often than not
in his first three seasons out of Arkansas.
He's considered the third consecutive first-round bust for the
Titans, joining offensive tackle Isaiah Wilson (2020) and
cornerback Caleb Farley (2021).
Burks spent the offseason recovering from a partially torn knee
ligament. He had his best season in 2022, catching 33 passes for
444 yards and a score. If he clears waivers, he will revert to
the team's injured reserve.
The Titans filled Burks' roster spot by signing Ramel Keyton,
who signed with the Las Vegas Raiders as an undrafted free agent
in 2024. Keyton spent time on the Raiders' practice squad and
active roster last season. He played in eight games, mostly on
special teams.
