Kyle Philips, WR/KR

Kyle Philips hasn't met his pre-draft expectations.

Between nagging injuries, a fumbling issue as a returner, and not being a consistent fit in Mike Vrabel's heavy personnel offense, Philips has never been able to live up to the flashes that he has shown in practice.

While most have given up on Philips ever sustaining those flashes, times have changed in Tennessee. The new offense fits Philips much better than the old one and a new coaching staff that doesn't view him as a fumble waiting to happen might help him get over whatever psychological issue he was having as a returner.

If Philips doesn't improve, the Titans have Tyler Boyd to take all of the snaps as the slot receiver and Jha'Quan Jackson as a young option to return kicks and punts.

On the other hand, if Philips can become more consistent, especially as a dynamic return man, imagine the possibilities. Add another shot of adrenaline to an offense that has DeAndre Hopkins, Calvin Ridley, Tony Pollard, Tyjae Spears, Boyd, Chig Okonkwo, Treylon Burks, Jackson, and Josh Whyle.
