The Titans lucked into drafting Fulton late in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft after he slid much further than many experts expected him to.

Prior to making the pick, the Titans had pre-draft meetings with Fulton and one of the first questions they asked him was if he could play in the slot, so it’s clear that’s what they have in mind for him in his rookie season.

Fulton certainly has the speed to get it done, as his 40-yard dash time of 4.46 would be an upgrade over Ryan. Not to mention, Fulton has flashed elite coverage skills against top competition during his time in college.

Look for Fulton to play predominantly in the slot in 2020 and then possibly move to the boundary in 2021 if the team cuts Malcolm Butler and his big salary.
