After the recent addition to the Titans’ roster, Ramel Keyton is beginning to integrate himself within the offense.
Keyton, a former Tennessee Vols wide receiver, is entering his second year in the NFL and first with the Titans. He was added after the franchise waived Treylon Burks following an injury.
This will be Keyton’s second team in as many years of his NFL career. He spent his rookie campaign with the Las Vegas Raiders after going undrafted.
Keyton turned heads in the preseason of his rookie year, resulting in him being added to the franchise’s 53-man roster for the regular season. He was waived on Sept. 28, but re-signed to the practice squad. He was promoted back to the active roster on Nov. 1. On the year, he caught one pass for seven yards.
This past April, Keyton was waived by the team, making way for him to join the Titans. Now, he’s starting to get limited reps with Tennessee.
Here is the first look at him going through practice with the Titans.

Keyton also met with the media after his practice on Wednesday. He initially spoke on the quick turnaround of having to gear up and play catch-up with the team. So far, that’s been a lot of work on the mental, rather than physical, side of things.
“It’s just about knowing everything. Watching. Trying to get the mental reps,” Keyton said. “I’m not getting a lot of reps right now so it’s more mental. Like knowing exactly what to do.”
Keyton played five seasons at Tennessee. He began his career under Jeremy Pruitt in 2019 and stuck through the coaching change to play for Josh Heupel.
As a freshman, Keyton played in all 12 games, totalling four catches for 104 yards. As a sophomore in 2020, he played in seven games and started in three. He caught nine passes for 76 yards.
In his first season under Heupel in 2021, Keyton played in 10 games and started one. He caught seven passes for 72 yards that year.
In 2022, he played a much larger role to help replace an injured Cedric Tillman. He managed 31 receptions for 562 yards and five touchdowns. This featured a great game against Florida when he produced 69 yards, including a fantastic diving grab. He started in seven of his 13 appearances that year.
His final season paired him up with quarterback Joe Milton III in 2023. He started in all 13 games while posting a career high in receptions (35), receiving yards (642) and touchdowns (6). This also marked a team-high in touchdown grabs.
“It’s a similar feeling. It feels good,” Keyton said about being back in Tennessee. “It’s nice being back home. It’s a good feeling.”
Keyton is out of Marietta, Georgia, where he was considered a four-star recruit.
