Brock Rechsteiner announced Sunday on social media that he signed with the Tennessee Titans as an undrafted free agent after not being selected during the three-day NFL draft event.
Rechsteiner, who played wide receiver for the Jacksonville State Gamecocks, finished his collegiate run with 53 catches for 629 yards and seven touchdowns from 2023 to 2025. In his final year with Jacksonville State he had 36 catches for 383 yards and five touchdowns — the numbers the Titans will now evaluate in rookie camp and training camp.
The signing landed immediately after the draft and is the clearest sign yet that Rechsteiner is pressing for an NFL career. He and his brother Brandon signed NIL deals with WWE last year, a move that highlighted the family’s ties to pro wrestling even as Brock pursues football. Brandon, who played guard for the Colorado State Rams men’s basketball team, averaged 12 points per game during the 2025-26 season and has announced he is transferring to Kansas State.
Context matters: Brock is the son of Scott Steiner, a former tag team champion who, with his brother Rick Steiner, earned WWE Hall of Fame nods in 2022. The family’s wrestling connections run deep — Rick Steiner’s son Bronson Rechsteiner is a major WWE star known as Bron Breakker — and the NIL deals last year underscored how the Rechsteiners straddle both sports worlds. Scott Steiner has used the blunt phrase "genetic freak" in public commentary about elite athletes.
Tension in the story comes from the split direction in front of the brothers. Brock has the collegiate production and now an NFL entry point, but the family’s wrestling relationships and past NIL deals leave open a different career track. It is unclear whether the Rechsteiner brothers will attempt to make it in pro wrestling, and Brock’s signing with the Titans does not resolve that uncertainty.
What happens next is straightforward and consequential: Brock will report to Titans’ offseason workouts and try to earn a roster spot as an undrafted player. The jump from a productive college receiver to an NFL depth chart is steep; undrafted signees must show adaptability on special teams and consistency in practices to stick. For Brock, this signing is both an opportunity and a deadline — an early step that will determine whether he stays in football or leans on the family’s wrestling avenues.
This move makes clear which path Brock chose first. By signing with Tennessee immediately after the draft and announcing it himself on social media, he has committed to testing his prospects in the NFL before any possible pivot to pro wrestling. That does not close the door on the family business, but it answers the immediate question the headline raised: for now, Brock Rechsteiner is chasing an NFL roster spot with the Tennessee Titans.
