Titans Sign 11 UDFAs
After adding eight players in the draft, the Titans have now added 11 players to their rookie class. The team announced the signing of the following undrafted free agents:
- Shad Banks, LB (UTSA)
- Hank Beatty, WR (Illinois)
- Sean Brown, LB (NC State)
- Bishop Fitzgerald, S (USC)
- Jeadyn Lukus, CB (Clemson)
- Latrell McCutchin, CB (Houston)
- Jalen McMurray, CB (Tennessee)
- Rasheed Miller, OT (Louisville)
- Tyren Montgomery, WR (John Carroll)
- Mani Powell, LB (Purdue)
- Aamil Wagner, OT (Notre Dame)
Bishop Fitzgerald got a chunk of money to join the Titans. Per Aaron Wilson of KPRC2 in Houston, the USC safety received a $20K signing bonus and had $247.5K of his salary guaranteed, giving him $267.5K in total guarantees. After starting his collegiate career at Coffeyville Community College, Fitzgerald joined NC State ahead of the 2023 campaign. He had a pair of standout seasons at the school, leading to him transferring to USC for the 2025 season. He earned a consensus All-American nod during his lone season with the Trojans, tallying 51 tackles and five interceptions.
After using the fourth-overall pick on wideout Carnell Tate, the Titans have now added two more rookies at the position. Hank Beatty spent four years at Illinois, but he truly started breaking out in 2024. He earned a third-team All-Big Ten nod in 2024 thanks to his special teams ability, as he led the conference with 14.1 yards per punt return. He earned another all-conference selection in 2025 thanks to his offensive ability, as he hauled in 70 catches for 864 yards and three touchdowns.
Tyren Montgomery has one of the more unique paths to the NFL. He was a basketball player at LSU but was forced to return home after only one semester. After competing in a flag football event in Las Vegas, he earned a walk-on gig with the Houston Cougars, but that didn’t come to fruition thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic. Montgomery subsequently sent his flag football tape to multiple schools, and he eventually got Nicholls State University to bite. He had to sit out the 2022 season due to eligibility reasons, but he finally saw the field in 2023, when he hauled in 12 catches.
With his D1 eligibility having run out, he caught on with the Division III John Carroll Blue Streaks, where he spent the past two seasons. He finished his first season with 57 catches for 1,071 yards and 17 touchdowns, and he followed that up with a 2025 campaign where he collected 119 catches for 1,528 yards and 15 touchdowns. That earned him an invite to the Senior Bowl, which helped put him on the NFL radar.
