From the article

What the Titans lacked last year was a go-to target in the passing game (Elic Ayomanor led the team with a mere 89 targets in 2025), and Carnell Tate provides them with that (Wan'Dale Robinson will vacuum up a hefty share of targets too). Tate was the most pro-ready prospect in the 2026 NFL draft with his pristine route running and strong hands. I'm bullish.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

Tate's pro-ready route running and Tennessee's target void position him for immediate impact.

Tate was the most pro-ready prospect in the 2026 NFL draft with pristine route running and strong hands. He fills Tennessee's critical need for a go-to passing target (Elic Ayomanor led the team with only 89 targets in 2025). The source is bullish on Tate's ability to produce immediately alongside Wan'Dale Robinson in an improved Titans offense with Cam Ward.
