What is the story about?
The newest Tennessee Titan is just 20 years old. With the 31st pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, the Titans have selected Keldric Faulk, EDGE, Auburn. Here’s what you need to know.
Stats & Accolades
- 2023: (13 games played, 8 starts), SEC All-Freshman Team, 35 total tackles, 3.5 tackles for loss, sack, pass defended
- 2024: (12 games played, 12 starts), 45 total tackles, 11 tackles for loss, seven sacks, pass defended, forced fumble, fumble recovery
- 2025: (12 games played, 12 starts), Third-Team All-SEC, 29 total tackles, five tackles for loss, two sacks, four passes defended, fumble recovery
What the Titans are getting:
Young (20 years old at start of season) and prototypical edge rusher with traits-y profile that will be a phenomenal addition to a pro locker room due to high marks in character and leadership by scouts. Faulk has an impressive toolbox of pass rush moves that is surprisingly polished
for his age. He needs to assert more dominance at the point of attack for a player of his build but the right defensive staff will surely unlock all there is in his game.
Strengths
- Prototypical size and length for the position
- High quality character guy with A+ off-field intangibles
- Will be 20 years old still when rookie season begins
- Positional versatility up and down the front
Weakness
- One of this year’s “raw but he’s got upside” prospects
- Lacks consistent “want to” when setting the edge
- Max speed reached at top of rush not all that threatening
