Tyler Boyd is signing a one-year deal with the Tennessee Titans

For the last eight seasons, WR Tyler Boyd has played for the Cincinnati Bengals. He was a second-round pick for the team out of Pittsburgh in 2016. In his professional career, Boyd has had two 1,000+ receiving-yard seasons. Over the last five years, Cincinnati added younger talent to their WR room with Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. That left Boyd playing a WR3 role. 

The 29-year-old is a free agent this offseason and news broke today about where he’ll be playing in 2024. After eight years, Boyd is parting ways with the Bengals and is joining the Tennesee Titans. Boyd reunites with head coach Bill Callahan who was previously an assistant in Cincinnati. It’s a one-year deal for Boyd and he’ll be joining a talented WR room once again.

His most productive season was in 2018 with 76 receptions for 1,028 yards, and a career-high seven receiving touchdowns.

In 2024, Tyler Boyd’s quality of QB production will take a step back. For his last four seasons in Cincinnati, Boyd played with Pro Bowl QB Joe Burrow. With the Titans, his QB will be Will Levis. As a rookie in 2023, Levis played and started nine games for the Tiatns, going 3-6in those starts. Another WR joining Tennesse’s…
