Titans select Fernando Carmona with No. 142 pick in 2026 NFL Draft. What they're getting

With the No. 142 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, the Tennessee Titans used their first fifth-round pick to select OL Fernando Carmona from Arkansas.

Carmona is 6-foot-5 and 316 pounds. He was second-team All-SEC in 2025 and was a team captain at Arkansas.

The Titans came into the draft with major needs at edge defender, wide receiver, guard, center and defensive back, as well as opportunities to improve at running back, tight end, offensive tackle and interior defensive line. In their first offseason under the supervision of coach Robert Saleh, the Titans went on a free agent spending spree, bringing in anticipated starters like DL John Franklin-Myers, WR Wan’Dale Robinson and CBs Alontae Taylor and Cor’Dale Flott.

With their two first-round picks on April 23, the Titans selected WR Carnell Tate and DL Keldric Faulk. The Titans traded back into the first round to select Faulk, then pulled off another trade in the late second round to move up and pick LB Anthony Hill Jr. This comes one year after the Titans used the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft to select quarterback Cam Ward.
