What happened: The Tennessee Titans highlighted rookie defensive end Keldric Faulk during the team’s final minicamp session on Wednesday. Faulk, the 31st overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, worked on hand technique and first-step explosiveness during individual drills. The session concluded the team’s spring offseason program under new head coach Robert Saleh.

Why it matters: Securing Faulk in the first round was a priority for coach Robert Saleh as he rebuilds the Titans’ defensive identity around length and physicality. Faulk’s development is critical for a revamped front seven that looks to complement star defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons. His early progress suggests he will be a key contributor to the defensive rotation in the upcoming 2026 season.

What to watch: The Titans will now break for the summer before reconvening for training camp in late July. Faulk is expected to compete for a starting role once full-padded practices begin.
