Tennessee Titans Draft Marcus Harris, Fourth Cal Player Selected

The Tennessee Titans selected Cal cornerback Marcus Harris in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, marking a significant achievement for Cal as four of its defensive players were drafted this year for the first time since at least 1952. Harris, who previously played at Idaho and Oregon State and was a First Team FCS All-American at Idaho, joined Cal for the 2024 season and contributed 46 tackles, five pass breakups, and two interceptions. His draft selection adds needed depth to the Titans' secondary, especially given current roster uncertainties, and he is expected to primarily contribute on special teams and possibly as a slot corner due to his size. Analysts highlight Harris's speed, ball skills, and versatility across the secondary, though note that his physical stature may limit him against taller receivers. The pick reflects the Titans' strategy of bolstering special teams and secondary depth in the later rounds. Harris's journey from walk-on to NFL draftee underscores his adaptability and football intelligence.
