The Tennessee Titans continue to search for wide receiver depth amid veteran free agents. Spending their-first round pick on their offensive line made sense, but the need for another impact wideout only grew after that choice.
They visited with Tyler Boyd last week. Now, another potential addition has been added to the cards.
Free agent WR Zay Jones, who was released after the NFL Draft by the #Jaguars, is visiting the #Titans today, source said.

Jones has an obvious connection to Tennessee OC Nick Holz, as the two were both in Jacksonville last year.
Jones, like Boyd, has seen a bulk of his pro success come in the slot. The inside is clearly where the Titans feel they need to improve the most. Calvin Ridley and DeAndre Hopkins projects as their top two options outside.
Past those two on the WR depth chart, the experience is cloudy. Treylon Burks has a ton to prove, and that may not even come in Tennessee once they add another option. Kyle Philips and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine are the following options, and neither would prevent you from a veteran upgrade.
Jones was a productive player and leading voice for the Jags offense in recent years. Not to mention, he played with Ridley last season as well.
Good luck, Zay Jones. pic.twitter.com/vgpYVrIsfk

Jones has been in the NFL since 2017. He totaled 321 yards and two touchdowns on 34 receptions last season for Jacksonville.

He's spent time with the Jaguars, Buffalo Bills, and Las Vegas Raiders.
We will see if the Titans sign either Boyd or Jones. They clearly want to add another proven target for Will Levis.
