Boyd and the Titans agreed to terms Tuesday on a one-year contract worth up to $4.5 million, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports. Boyd becomes the newest member of a revamped Tennessee wide receiver corps that added Calvin Ridley atop the depth chart in free agency, joining DeAndre Hopkins and Treylon Burks. Ridley and Hopkins figure to operate as Will Levis' clear top targets, as both exceeded 1,000 receiving yards last season. Boyd's experience as a slot option could make him the favorite to secure the No. 3 role over Burks, who lined up in the slot over 60 percent of the time last year. In both 2018 and 2019, Boyd himself topped 1,000 yards, but in four seasons since took a clear backseat to Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins with the Bengals.

Boyd and the Titans agreed to terms Tuesday on a one-year contract worth up to $4.5 million, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports. Boyd becomes the newest member of a revamped Tennessee wide receiver corps that added Calvin Ridley atop the depth chart in free agency, joining DeAndre Hopkins and Treylon Burks. Ridley and Hopkins figure to operate as Will Levis' clear top targets, as both exceeded 1,000 receiving yards last season. Boyd's experience as a slot option could make him the favorite to secure the No. 3 role over Burks, who lined up in the slot over 60 percent of the time last year. In both 2018 and 2019, Boyd himself topped 1,000 yards, but in four seasons since took a clear backseat to Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins with the Bengals.
Boyd and the Steelers have mutual interest, though nothing is imminent for the veteran free agent, Mark Kaboly of The Athletic reports. It's a fit that was rumored all winter, in part because Boyd is from Western Pennsylvania and went to college at Pitt. He spent the first eight years of his career in Cincinnati, where he topped 1,000 yards in 2018 and again in 2019 before taking a backseat in the Bengals offense to Tee Higgins and then Ja'Marr Chase. The 29-year-old has mostly worked from the slot, especially in recent years, but he could also get perimeter snaps in a Pittsburgh offense with minimal talent at WR behind George Pickens (Diontae Johnson was just traded to Carolina).
With Tee Higgins (hamstring) sidelined and Ja'Marr Chase believed to be at less than 100 percent due to his back injury, Boyd unsurprisingly drew a team-high number of targets and parlayed them into the team lead in receptions. Both figures, as well as the yardage tally, were season highs for the veteran wideout, who could be tasked with a larger role again in a Week 11 road divisional clash against the Ravens on Thursday night.
Boyd finished third in receiving yards on the afternoon behind position mates Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, and he also recorded his second touchdown of the campaign on a seven-yard grab in the first quarter. Boyd remains a clear complementary option as long as his two aforementioned teammates are healthy in front of him, but it's worth noting he'd logged at least seven targets in five consecutive contests prior to seeing that streak snapped Sunday.
