Player News
Titans signed WR Golden Tate to the practice squad.
Tate worked out with Tennessee in July and was likely brought back since A.J. Brown (chest), Marcus Johnson (hamstring, IR), and Julio Jones (hamstring, IR) are all battling injuries. It's possible Tate is called up from the practice squad over their Week 13 bye if Brown struggles to get healthy. Dez Fitzpatrick and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine will work in two-wide sets in the interim.
Titans.com's Jim Wyatt doesn’t expect free agent Golden Tate to sign with Tennessee.
Tate was “looking at signing” with the Titans, Colts, and Rams last month. The Titans, who signed Josh Reynolds in March and traded for Julio Jones, would be blocking Day 3 picks Dez Fitzpatrick and Racey McMath if they added Tate. New Orleans is a possible fit for Tate as insurance for Michael Thomas. The 32-year-old could miss the early stages of training camp before he signs with a team.
Free agent Golden Tate said he’s looking at signing with the Titans, Colts, and Rams.
Tate is from Tennessee and had his best years with Matthew Stafford. The Colts and “all of the NFC West” are also potential landing spots. Tate’s free agent market has been quiet after his fallout and March release from the Giants. The 32-year-old, who played 2020 at a $7.9M salary, could land a non-guaranteed deal before training camp.
Giants released WR Golden Tate.
This move was widely expected after a forgettable season that included a suspension and some on-field frustrations surrounding his target volume. Tate, 33, no longer projects as a sure-fire starter in the slot but could be a fit on a contender as depth. He's posted 795-, 676-, and 388-yard seasons since leaving Detroit in 2017. The Giants will be leaning on Sterling Shepard, Darius Slayton, Saquon Barkley, and offseason acquisitions in 2021.
