Kristian Fulton, former LSU DB, locks down Julio Jones in Titans camp
Former LSU defensive back Kristian Fulton has only been in the league a few years and is only getting better. The 2019 national champion is one of the top young defensive backs in the league in single coverage and showed it Wednesday at a joint Bucs-Titans practice in Nashville.
And Fulton was all over former Alabama receiver Julio Jones.

Jones, a former Titan himself, has admittedly dropped off from the receiver he was 5 seasons ago, but is still an elite route runner. He will likely be a major target for Tom Brady this season in Tampa Bay.
Fulton missed half of his rookie season with an injury and came out of the gate hot in 2021. He totaled 4 tackles, 2 interceptions and 14 pass deflections in 13 starts. He’s not Tennessee’s strongest corner (Jackrabbit Jenkins) but could prove to be worth keeping around in Nashville if this production keeps up.
