Luther Burden III | WR | Missouri

The Titans are extremely well-stocked at the receiver position with DeAndre Hopkins, Calvin Ridley, and Tyler Boyd in the fold for the 2024 campaign. It may be a significantly different outlook come next offseason. Both Hopkins and Boyd are effectively playing out the season on one-year contracts at age 32 and 30 respectively.

Ridley is the lone sure-thing on the Titans' roster for 2025 and beyond. Head coach Brian Callahan's offense places significant emphasis on the passing game. His No. 1 task is to develop Will Levis this offseason, and if successful, they'll want to build long-term consistency. Getting younger and more dynamic at receiver next offseason is a necessity.

Missouri's Luther Burden III is a dominant receiver that totaled 86 receptions for 1,212 yards and nine touchdowns last season. He specializes in creating mismatches in isolated situations. Primarily lining up in the slot for the Tigers, Burden III would be an excellent replacement for Boyd.
