Well, Carnell Tate didn't have a banner preseason as he failed to secure any of his six targets, but I don't put this slow start on Tate. I think it rests at the feet of Cam Ward. I'm not fading Tate's talent off a small 25-route preseason sample.
STACKED’s take
Tate's elite college metrics and weak corner matchup could spark Week 1 breakout.
Tate had a slow preseason, failing to secure any of his six targets, but the source attributes this to Cam Ward's play rather than Tate's talent. The source is not fading Tate off a small 25-route preseason sample. In college, Tate ranked tenth in yards per route run and fourth in receiving grade (per PFF), with an otherworldly 68.8% contested catch rate and zero drops in his final season despite a 14.6 aDOT. Tennessee's outside corner tandem of Brandon Stephens (67.1% catch rate, 126.4 passer rating in 2025) and Nashon Wright (64.5% catch rate, 98.0 passer rating in 2025) are not concerning. The source expects Tate could walk away from Week 1 with a wonderful stat line that has everyone reconsidering their offseason fade.
