The Titans have officially added veteran wide receiver to their roster.
He comes to Tennessee after a decade with the Seattle Seahawks, where he finished second all-time in receptions (661), receiving yards (8,594), and receiving touchdowns (61), trailing only Hall of Famer Steve Largent. He also ranks second in Seahawks history in punt return yards (1,078), kickoff return average (25.1 yards), and kickoff return touchdowns (2).
During his time in Seattle, He earned the Steve Largent Award three times — an honor given by players to the teammate or coach who best represents the team’s values of spirit, dedication, and integrity. He made the Pro Bowl in 2015 and earned All-Pro honors (first or second team) in 2015, 2016, and 2017.
Seattle released Him in March following a season where he posted 49 catches for 600 yards and two touchdowns. Throughout his career, Lockett recorded four 1,000-yard seasons and had at least 70 receptions in five different seasons. In 2023, he became the 94th player in NFL history to reach 600 career receptions.
Set to turn 33 in September, Lockett had publicly celebrated Tennessee’s draft picks before finalizing his move. Although he agreed to terms with the Titans last Wednesday, his signing became official on Monday.
Lockett will be part of a revamped Titans receiving group.
Over the weekend, Tennessee selected wide receivers Chimere Dike (Florida) and Elic Ayomanor (Stanford) in the fourth round of the NFL Draft. In free agency back in March, they also picked up veteran Van Jefferson.
The new additions will join returning receivers Calvin Ridley, Treylon Burks, Mason Kinsey, Bryce Oliver, Jha’Quan Jackson, Colton Dowell, James Proche II, and Tay Martin.
