Tennessee Titans outside linebacker Derick Roberson doesn’t shy away from looking fashionable, and this training camp outfit he was rocking is the latest example of that.
In a video shot by inside linebacker Jayon Brown, Roberson showed off his colorful sweatsuit, which the team believes is an early favorite for the “best camp fit” — and it’s hard to disagree.

We first got a look at Roberson’s fashion sense last season, when he showed up to Kansas City for the AFC Championship Game against the Chiefs wearing this epic outfit.

Roberson wasn’t just fashionable at the end of last season, he was also productive. In the Titans’ final two regular season games, Roberson notched three sacks, including two against the New Orleans Saints’ elite offensive line in Week 16.
The 2019 UDFA then parlayed that success into playing time during the playoffs, where he posted three QB hits in three postseason contests. While he didn’t notch a sack, the fact that he saw snaps at all in such high-leverage games speaks to the trust he earned from the coaching staff.
Roberson enters 2020 with a great chance to make the Titans’ roster and take on a reserve role. However, if he can continue to show he has the ability to bother opposing quarterbacks consistently and can improve against the run, he could work his way into more playing time.
