The Titans have reached an agreement with a second former Vol on Monday. Defensive back Alontae Taylor will play for Tennessee during the 2026 NFL season, according to Dianna Russini of The Athletic.

"The Titans are in agreement with former Saints corner Alontae Taylor, sources tell The Athletic," Russini announced.

The 6-foot, 199-pound cornerback appeared in 45 games for the Vols from 2018-21, totaling 162 tackles, five tackles for a loss, four interceptions, 19 pass deflections and three forced fumbles.

Taylor was selected in the second round (No. 49 overall) of the 2022 NFL draft by New Orleans. He appeared in 64 games for the Saints from 2022-25, recording four interceptions, seven sacks, 283 tackles (205 solo) and 52 pass deflections.

Taylor went to the Vols from Coffee County Central High School in Manchester, Tennessee.

The Titans also signed former Tennessee long snapper Morgan Cox on Monday to a one-year contract.
