Titans showing ‘significant interest’ in Cincinnati WR Tyler Scott

The Tennessee Titans are doing their homework on college prospects all across the country, and Cincinnati wide receiver Tyler Scott is among them.

According to Justin Williams of The Athletic, the Titans are among the teams “showing significant interest” in Scott, who recently had dinner with head coach Mike Vrabel and offensive coordinator Tim Kelly.

Scott said he has spoken to just about all 32 teams in the NFL and has generally heard Round 2 or early Round 3 as a likely draft spot, with the Colts, Giants, Titans and Bears showing significant interest.

Scott raved at pro day about the dinner he had Wednesday evening in Cincinnati with Titans coach Mike Vrabel, offensive coordinator [Tim] Kelly and two team scouts, before mentioning a meeting with the New York Giants in a few minutes.

Earlier this offseason, Vrabel indicated that he wanted the team to get faster and Scott would certainly help when it comes to meeting that goal.

After running a 4.44 at the NFL Combine, the Cincinnati product drastically improved his 40-time to a 4.32 at his pro day, a time that certainly matches the speed he displays on tape.

Also, despite his smaller stature (5-foot-10, 177 pounds), Scott spent the majority of his time on the outside, totaling 96 percent of his snaps (677-of-704) along the boundary over the last three years, per Pro Football Focus.
