Quinton Patton

  • 2016 Salary: $637k
  • Age: 26
  • 2016 Stats: 37 Rec — 408 Yards — 0 TD’s

This is definitely the least exciting name on this list.

Patton enjoyed a career year in 2016, but it still wasn’t very good. The former Louisiana Tech wide receiver had a career high 408 receiving yards in 14 games.

Those aren’t very good numbers. But then again, Patton wasn’t on a very good team.

Patton has yet to have his breakout season in the NFL, but we’ve seen players clear the hump in their late 20’s before.

If the Titans were to sign Patton, I wouldn’t expect him to have a huge season, but he could be a quietly productive third wide receiver.

It would also allow whatever wide receiver the Titans draft to have some time to develop, instead of being counted on to produce from day one.
