Tennessee Titans Carnell Tate Wears 14 as Rookies Pick New Numbers & Finding Success for Rookies

The Tennessee Titans new rookie class finally picked their numbers on Thursday and first-round pick Carnell Tate selected 14. It is certainly a silly conversation, but 14 just doesn't have the pop of 17. Chim Dike clearly was not willing to part with the number despite Tate's willingness to pay for it. However, all the other numbers fit perfectly fine for the rookie class. Regardless, numbers on the jersey don't mean numbers on the field and all of these rookies are more focused on the in-game results. Finding success as a rookie is different for each player as the expectations vary. Also, the Titans still need some depth at key places, but it may be a while before we see meaningful additions.
