The Tennessee Titans appear to be keying in on one of the best players in the 2024 NFL Draft after scheduling a top-30 visit with LSU standout Malik Nabers.

Tennessee has scheduled Nabers' visit for Monday, which will be his first stop in what has already turned into a pretty busy week for the dynamic wideout. After his visit in Nashville, Nabers will head to New York to visit the Jets on Tuesday prior to stopping in Chicago to meet with the Bears on Wednesday, per Ian Rapoport.

Many draft analysts believe Nabers is the second-best wide receiver in the draft class and a lock to be selected in the top 10. Due to his elite skillset many teams are taking an extra look in Nabers' direction.

Nabers will make an instant impact on whichever team selects him on April 25, but he makes plenty of sense for the Titans. Tennessee surprised many by signing Calvin Ridley to a four-years contract worth $92 million in March, but with DeAndre Hopkins on the final year of his deal it makes sense for the team to invest in the future by drafting a receiver.

Monday marks the third time the Titans have met with Nabers. Tennessee conducted a formal meeting at the NFL's Combine along with a private meeting at LSU's Pro Day.

Titans head coach Brian Callahan has been transparent about preferring players who can get into the endzone, so it shouldn't come as a surprise that the team is interested in Nabers. 

Nabers caught 89 passes for 1,569 yards and 14 touchdowns in 2023 for the Tigers. He's a prospect that will make an instant impact wherever he lands.
