Cornerback Adoree' Jackson, one of the Tennessee Titans' two first-round draft picks this year, has agreed to a four-year deal with a team option for a fifth season, the Titans announced Tuesday.

Jackson was the 18th overall pick. Wide receiver Corey Davis, who was taken by the Titans with the fifth overall pick, is one of three draft picks that have not yet signed with the team.

Under the NFL rookie wage scale, the total value of Jackson's deal is worth up to $11.3 million, with a $6.3 million signing bonus, per Sportac.

Jackson won the Jim Thorpe Award as the nation's top collegiate cornerback last season while at USC. Jackson returned four kickoffs for touchdowns and four punts for touchdowns during his college career.

Jackson also played wide receiver for the Trojans, but the Titans expect to use him on defense and as a returner.
