Jaren Kanak
The Oklahoma Sooners went back-to-back in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft . After Robert Spears-Jennings went to the Pittsburgh Steelers at No. 224 overall, tight end Jaren Kanak followed his former teammate at pick No. 225 to the Tennessee Titans .
Kanak's athleticism and speed make him a unique weapon for the Titans' offense. With experience as a wildcat quarterback dating back to high school and with three seasons at linebacker for the Sooners , Kanak is the definition of position versatility.

At tight end in 2025, Kanak caught 44 passes for 533 yards. Teams that will use him as an H-Back or a big slot wide receiver will be able to best take advantage of his skill set.
He'll have a role on special teams early in his career with the Titans and could carve out a niche role similar to New Orleans ' Taysom Hill , who is a jack of all trades for the Saints .
