The Titans will have to make decisions about whether or not to pick up the fifth-year options of both Davis and Adoree’ Jackson by May 3. While Jackson is a lock to have his picked up, Davis is not.

The former No. 5 overall pick took a step back in production last season and a back seat to A.J. Brown as the team’s No. 1 receiver. While we can certainly point to his value as a blocker, that won’t be enough to have his option picked up, which would make him a free agent in 2021.

As was the case with Jack Conklin in 2019, Davis could emerge and have a great season in 2020, which would make him a priority free agent for the team. Even if that happens, I’d expect the Titans to prepare for his potential departure by drafting a receiver at some point during the 2020 NFL Draft.
