Sep. 2—Wilson Central High (Class of 2017) graduate Colton Dowell made the Tennessee Titans' 53-man roster for the 2023 regular season during Tuesday's cut-down day.
The seventh-round pick from UT-Martin finished the preseason in style with two catches for a team-leading 49 yards in last week's exhibition game against the New England Patriots in his first pro game at Nissan Stadium (where he played a game last year for the Skyhawks against Tennessee State).
Dowell has a good chance of becoming possibly the first Wilson Countian to appear in a non-strike regular-season NFL game when the Titans travel to New Orleans next Sunday to take on the Saints in the Superdome.
