One particular bright light on the Titans roster was young wide receiver – AJ Brown. Brown made his NFL debut in 2019 against Cleveland Browns in the opening game of the season and has impressed ever since.

This kid is going to be special in our league for years to come and that division better watch out,” Jones concluded.
