Biggest takeaways from Day 3 of Titans mandatory minicamp

Tennessee Titans mandatory minicamp is now in the books after the team held its final session of the three-day event on Thursday afternoon.

After mandatory minicamp, the Titans will have four sessions of organized team activities from June 12-15, with the June 14 session being the only one currently scheduled to be open to the media.

After the completion of OTAs next week, the Titans will get a break before the team turns its attention to training camp, which is slated to start in late July. Until then, expect things to be very quiet, barring the team signing DeAndre Hopkins at some point between now and training camp.

Malik Willis shines

Syndication: The Tennessean

Per Jim Wyatt of TitansOnline:

Willis has been more decisive this offseason, and he’s getting the ball out quicker as a result. Willis connected with receivers Reggie Roberson Jr. and Tre’Shaun Harrison for touchdowns in the first team period of practice, and he also threw a completion to receiver Racey McMath, who later let a catchable ball from Willis go off his hands. Willis tucked the football and ran it in for a score late, which sparked another celebration.

Will Levis tosses a few TDs

Syndication: The Tennessean

Per Wyatt:

Quarterback Will Levis found Whyle open for a touchdown, and he connected with Roberson, who made a nifty catch on the final play of practice, for another score. He connected with receiver Kearis Jackson with two defenders lurking as well.

Kicker update

Christopher Hanewinckel-USA TODAY Sports

Per Wyatt:

Kicker Caleb Shudak made all seven of his field goals in a kicking period, from 33, 39, 45, 50, 42, 38 and 52 yards. He was 14 of 15 in this week’s minicamp. Kicker Trey Wolff, an undrafted free agent from Texas Tech, was 6-of-7 on Thursday, his only miss from 42 yards, and he’s now 29-of-32 during the open periods this offseason.

Two RBs impress

RB Tyjae Spears

Per Wyatt:

I’ve mentioned Ward in these observation pieces numerous times, because he keeps showing up.


Another guy who keeps showing up is running back Tyjae Spears, and he’s the guy who caught Tannehill’s second TD pass of the day – a bullet across the middle – late in practice. Center Aaron Brewer lifted Spears into the air after that score, as players on offense celebrated.
