Tennessee Titans running back Julius Chestnut has arguably written the team’s best underdog stories over the past two seasons. An undrafted free agent out of Sacred Heart in 2022, Chestnut defied the odds when he made the initial 53-man roster. The Bowie, Maryland native proved he wasn’t a one-year wonder by achieving the same in 2023.
The Titans underwent sweeping changes at running back this offseason. Franchise legend Derrick Henry signed with the Baltimore Ravens in free agency. Former Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard was preferred to Henry as a better fit in new head coach Brian Callahan’s scheme.
