Rookie Rise: The Story of Xavier Restrepo

The Tennessee sun blazed down on the practice field, but Titans rookie wide receiver Xavier Restrepo was unfazed. With sweat dripping down his brow and cleats digging into the turf, he ran every route like it was game day.

From the first snap of minicamp, something clicked. Quarterbacks kept finding him—on slants, deep outs, and quick screens. Coaches took notice. Restrepo wasn’t just running routes; he was reading defenses, adjusting on the fly, and making tough catches look routine.

“He’s always open,” one assistant coach murmured during a film session. And the tape didn’t lie.

By the end of the week, Restrepo’s jersey number was a fixture in first-team reps. He had earned the trust of the staff—and more importantly, his teammates.

He came in as a rookie with something to prove. Now, as training camp loomed, it was clear: Xavier Restrepo wasn’t just fighting for a roster spot. He was making a name for himself in Nashville.
