Wide Receiver Nate Washington is known for taking advantage of the opportunities given to him.

An undersized receiver from Toledo, Ohio, Washington was given a chance to play at Tiffin University, a small school one hour outside his home town. In his seasons at the small school, Washington made it count holding eight Tiffin receiving records including most touchdowns and yards in a career.

"To see all the hard work from a small guy, an undrafted guy, at Tiffin University you cry this game," Washington said. "Everything is football in my life and to see it all pay off and everything coming together like it's coming together, it's gratifying.''

Also...


One reason Washington was brought to the Music City was to compliment another Titans receiver, Justin Gage. The 6-4 Gage racked up 651 yards receiving with six touchdowns in 2009. Washington said he’s confident that the two will use each other to improve their production.



"We are going to take pressure off of both of us. It's not going to be one sided at all. I keep telling Gage, this league is going to have problems on their hands," Washington said. "That's the way I feel because in all reality neither me nor Gage have a big superstar name in this league. I think me and him are focused enough to do that right now and it's going to happen.''

I really think Nate will be a playmaker for us this year but in addition will allow 12Gage to open his game as well. Opposing defenses are going to have fits trying to defend our offense this year. I truly believe that. :toast

He's no Justin Mccareins, that's for sure

We had some games last year where teams decided to put 8 men in the box the whole game and dare Collins to pass. I can't imagine teams doing that (at least not as the main game plan) this year. The Titans have too many passing weapons to not respect the passing game.

Of course, this makes White's and CJ's jobs easier as well. I really see a nice balanced attacked this year on offense.

This guy is a very good player and has something to prove... A nice combination the Titans will reap the benefits of IMO.
