OLB Derick Roberson
With the Titans desperately trying to find players who can make an impact in the pass-rush off the edge, if Derick Roberson can start 2020 how he finished 2019, he can find his way into some serious playing time.
Roberson first flashed his pass-rush skills with a pair of sacks in the Titans’ final preseason game last year, but he spent the majority of the season on the practice squad after that.
The UDFA out of Houston came alive when given the opportunity to play in the last two games of the regular season. In just 29 snaps, Roberson totaled three sacks, two of which came against an elite New Orleans Saints offensive line in Week 16.
A great sign that Roberson was gaining the trust of the coaching staff came in the form of him getting 63 snaps during the three playoff games. Roberson is a dark-horse candidate to get significant pass-rush snaps in 2020.
