Senior Bowl Day 2 Risers Who Could Help the Titans in the 2026 Draft

By DREW BEATTY, film analyst

MOBILE, Ala. -- With the second day of Senior Bowl practices concluded, some players continued to capitalize on the boost from the first practice, some bounced back from a rough first day and some began their rise on day two.

Out of this second practice, a new handful of potential draft targets for the Tennessee Titans has emerged.

Once again, focusing on the Titans’ most significant positions of need, a pair of receivers, a defensive back and a premier edge rusher all stood out. While none of these players are going to be talked about as top players in the draft class, they could serve as valuable mid or late-round additions.

Romello Height - Texas Tech EDGE

Beginning with one of the most high-profile players (at least by the consensus board’s standards) at the Senior Bowl, Texas Tech edge rusher Romello Height had a much improved performance on Day Two in comparison to his first practice. He had his share of struggles in the one-on-one matchup drill on Tuesday, but was a candidate for the largest bounce-back performance on Thursday.

From first impressions, Height absolutely looks the part when seeing him move in drills. In a draft class full of stiff, larger power rushers, Height is one of the few pass rushers with real flexibility and speed. 

While he found himself stonewalled far too often during the first practice, it seems that Height is beginning to learn how to take advantage of his athleticism. Whether it’s bending around the arc or winning inside through the B-gap, Height made life miserable for many of the offensive tackles.

With edge rusher headlining Tennessee’s many positional needs, the chance for Titans’ scouts to see Height win in person is extremely valuable. Actually managing to own both of their Day-Two draft picks this year, Tennessee could look to add Height to their near-empty edge room in the second or third round.

Josh Cameron - Baylor WR

Moving to the offense, the first of two receivers that stood out was Baylor’s Josh Cameron. Standing at 6-foot-1 and 223 pounds, Cameron has an unusual build for a wide receiver. Being somewhat of a shorter, stocky and filled-out player, he brings a compact power profile to the position.

While he’s certainly not the most athletic receiver in Mobile, Cameron has managed to physically dominate most of his cornerback competition. He has consistently showcased his vice-grip play strength and ability to fight through contact both during stems and at the catch point.

Despite coming into Mobile as a later-round pick on the consensus board, Cameron has begun his ascent into a higher pre-draft caliber. With more help always needed at receiver in Nashville, Cameron is poised to be a strong mid-round draft pick option.

Kevin Coleman Jr. - Missouri WR

Pivoting to the second receiver of this standout group, Missouri wide receiver Kevin Coleman Jr. has emerged as one of my personal favorite players out of 2026’s Senior Bowl class. Despite only standing at 5-foot-10 and 174 pounds, Coleman has a firm case for the most athletic player in Mobile’s current receiver group.

So far this week, Coleman has done nothing but display hyper-fluid hips and blistering long speed. For my money, no defensive back at the Senior Bowl has been able to compete with Coleman in the vertical plane. In addition to his prowess as a separator, he has also played far bigger than his size would suggest at the catch point.

Tennessee is in desperate need of separators in their corps to help Cam Ward, and Coleman has comfortably proved himself to be one of the best here. The Titans should be in constant pursuit of speed at the receiver position, and Coleman appears to be a primary source of that in the 2026 draft.

Davison Igbinosun - Ohio State DB

Concluding the group of second-practice standouts, a few cornerbacks popped as potential risers. However, one player who especially separated himself was Ohio State defensive back Davison Igbinosun. 

While he did have two particularly rough losses over the top to USC wide receiver Ja’Kobi Lane, Igbinosun did have multiple eye-popping reps at the catch point. With how often he lost vertically, a potential move to the slot could be in Igbinosin’s future, but his physicality and disruption ability so far in Mobile has been undeniable.

With a completely barren cornerback room, the Titans could likely look to add more than one defensive back in the 2026 draft. While he’s probably more of a later-round player as of now, Igbinosin’s physical presence could be a valuable injection in Nashville.

This year’s Senior Bowl consists much more of potential depth and later-round draft additions – but that isn’t a bad thing.

Truly great NFL teams can find consistent contributors on Day Three, and this year’s Senior Bowl is the perfect place to find those diamonds in the rough. With their new, highly-touted coaching hires, if Tennessee can mirror the level of success that they had on Saturday of last year’s draft, the Titans could be poised for a turnaround in 2026.
