NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Treylon Burks stretched out for a fade from Ryan Tannehill and kept both hands on the ball as he went to the ground for a deep reception. Later, he reached for a catch with defenders around him.
That's exactly what the Tennessee Titans hoped to see when they drafted Burks out of Arkansas with the 18th pick overall in April to replace the guy they traded away to Philadelphia — A.J. Brown.
They just had to wait a bit.
Burks' catches came Wednesday on the opening day of training camp with the entire roster, and all eyes kept tabs on the rookie's progress and whether he worked drill-to-drill or finished the entire practice.
