The Tennessee Titans all of a sudden have quite the crowded WR depth chart.
They drafted Carnell Tate with the No. 4 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, and that has really bulked up the wide receiver room.
The Titans already had two returning second-year wideouts, Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike.
And this offseason, they signed Wan'Dale Robinson to a big deal from the New York Giants.
Tate's in the mix now, too, and it'll be fascinating to see how it shakes out.
Robinson seems the most likely to have a major role. The Titans paid him too much money to relegate him to second fiddle.
Reunited with Brian Daboll (now the Titans' offensive coordinator), Robinson is also capable of playing inside and outside, meaning there's no reason for him to ever come off the field.

Tate's draft status seems to make him the top outside target for Cam Ward, as long as their connection comes together.
Then you've got Ayomanor and Dike, both of whom showed great promise as rookies.
Carnell Tate's addition increases competition for playing time, potentially impacting Wan'Dale Robinson's opportunities in the Titans' offense.
With Tate's arrival, both Elic Ayomanor and Chimere Dike may face challenges in securing their spots on the roster or in the starting lineup.
The Titans drafted Carnell Tate to enhance their wide receiver depth and improve their offensive capabilities for the upcoming season.

Ayomanor is a big target from Stanford, and he's most likely to have some overlap with Tate, so maybe that puts his role in a diminishing direction.
Dike is more of a playmaking slot guy with gadget play potential. He made a huge impact in the return game and some on offense. He'll clearly still be the return star, and then he'll have to find his niche in Daboll's offense.
All told, there's at least some room for all of these guys, and it's a good problem to have. The Titans would much rather have Ward with too many guys to throw to rather than not enough.
