The Tennessee Titans are in desperate need of wide receiver help this offseason and the team is reportedly interested in adding a New York Giants free agent.
According to CBS Sports' Jonathan Jones, the Titans are rumored to be a landing spot for Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson, who Spotrac projects will receive a four-year, $70.5 million deal in free agency.
"The lack of Tennessee interest in Evans may be because the Titans have their eyes on Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson. Sources say Nashville could be the landing spot for Robinson, and there are obvious reasons why. The Titans have more than $90 million in cap space and have a huge need at receiver," Jones reported.
Robinson is coming off the best season of his career after he tallied a career-high 1,014 receiving yards and four touchdowns while serving as New York's No. 1 receiver in the wake of the season-ending injury to Malik Nabers.
The Titans are in the market for a wide receiver thanks to a lackluster receivers room that is headlined by Calvin Ridley, who is coming off an injury-shortened season.
Behind Ridley, the Titans don't have much and that is not an ideal situation for a team that is developing 2025 No. 1 overall pick, Cam Ward.
While Robinson does amount to a gamble considering he only has one year of good production, the Titans are loaded with cap space, so they can afford to take that gamble.
Another reason to connect Robinson to the Titans is Tennessee has his former head coach, Brian Daboll, serving as its offensive coordinator.
While the Giants might be interested in bringing Robinson back, he's shaping up to have a strong enough market that New York could get priced out.
