The Tennessee Titans agreed to terms with wide receiver Corey Davis, the No. 5 overall pick in this year's draft, as the team kicked off training camp practice Saturday.

The Titans have now reached contracts with all nine members of the 2017 draft class. Davis was the last first-round pick to agree to terms.

The holdup was over "offset language" in his contract, Titans coach Mike Mularkey said Friday.

Davis received a four-year contract worth an estimated $25.4 million, with a $16.6 million signing bonus, according to The Tennessean.

Davis was the only player absent from reporting Friday at Saint Thomas Sports Park in Nashville.

Davis caught 97 passes for 1,500 yards and 19 touchdowns last season at Western Michigan. His 5,285 career receiving yards are an FBS record, and he ranks second in NCAA history in career receiving touchdowns with 52.

The 6-foot-3, 209-pound Davis was limited at the start of offseason workouts as he recovered from ankle surgery.
