Kevin Byard Professional Career

On November 22, 2015, Byard announced on Twitter that he had accepted his invitation to play in the 2016 Senior Bowl. He was impressive during the week of practices leading up to the Senior Bowl, as he displayed his ball-hawking and athletic ability. Byard met with representatives from the Atlanta Falcons during the week.

Byard was not one of the 60 defensive backs invited to the NFL combine. On March 31, 2016, he participated in Middle Tennessee’s pro day, along with 18 other teammates. He surprised many scouts and analysts with a 4.46 and 4.50 in the 40-yard dash as many scouting reports listed speed as one of his weaknesses.

Team representatives and scouts from 24 NFL teams were in attendance with Byard as the top prospect performing. He met with representatives from the Oakland Raiders, Detroit Lions, and Tennessee Titans during his pro day.

 Byard had official private visits or workouts with 12 teams that included the Miami Dolphins, Green Bay Packers, Cleveland Browns, Titans, and Los Angeles Rams.

At the conclusion of the pre-draft process, Byard received many mixed draft projections from draft experts and scouts, with some (NFLDraftScout.com) projecting him to be a third or fourth-round pick to others (NFL.com) projecting him to be drafted in the sixth or seventh round. He was ranked the fifth-best strong safety prospect in the draft by NFLDraftScout.com.

Byard was drafted by the Tennessee Titans with the first pick in the third round (64th overall) in the 2016 NFL Draft.

Byard was the 24th player ever drafted from Middle Tennessee State and the highest player drafted from there since Tyrone Calico (second round, 60th overall), who was also selected by the Titans, in the 2003 NFL Draft. Byard was the fifth safety selected in the 2016 NFL draft. 

Throughout training camp, he competed with Rashad Johnson for the vacant starting free safety position left by the release of Michael Griffin. Head coach Mike Mularkey named Johnson the starting free safety to start the regular season with Byard serving as his backup.

On July 18, 2016, the Tennessee Titans signed Byard to a four-year, $3.63 million contract with a signing bonus of $897,060.

Byard made his NFL debut in the Titans’ season-opener against the Minnesota Vikings and collected five solo tackles in a 25–16 loss. On November 6, he recorded a season-high ten combined tackles in the Titans’ 43–35 loss at the San Diego Chargers. His playing time increased after Johnson missed Weeks 8–9 after suffering a neck injury.

On November 13, Byard received his first career start and recorded seven solo tackles, and made his first NFL sack on Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers during a 47–25 victory.

Although Johnson returned from injury in Week 10, Byard remained the starting free safety for the last seven games of the season. He finished his rookie season with a total of 58 combined tackles (44 solos), one sack, and four pass deflections in seven starts and 16 games.

He also finished second on the squad with 10 special teams tackles. Byard played in 656 (60.1%) of the Titans’ defensive snaps, leading all of their safeties. Pro Football Focus gave him a grade of 78.9, which ranked second among rookie safeties.

2017 season

Byard entered training camp slated as the Titans’ de facto free safety after they opted not to re-sign Rashad Johnson. As expected, he was named the starting free safety to begin the 2017 season.

Byard started the Titans’ season-opener against the Oakland Raiders and recorded eight solo tackles in a 26–16 loss. On October 1, 2017, he collected a season-high nine combined tackles and made his first career interception off of Deshaun Watson, as the Titans lost 57–14 to the Houston Texans.

On October 22, 2017, Byard recorded four combined tackles, three pass deflections, and had two interceptions off of Cleveland Browns’ quarterback DeShone Kizer and one interception off of Cody Kessler during the Titans’ 12–9 overtime win in Week 7.

His three-interception performance earned him AFC Defensive Player of the Week. The following week, Byard made four solo tackles, defended three passes, and intercepted Baltimore Ravens’ quarterback Joe Flacco twice to help his team earn a 23–20 victory.

He became the fifth player in NFL history to record five interceptions in a two-game span joining DeAngelo Hall (2010), Albert Lewis (1985), Willie Buchanon (1978), and Mike Haynes (1976).

Byard received a grade of 89.9 from Pro Football Focus which was the third-highest grade among safeties through the first twelve games, only behind Harrison Smith (94.2) and Adrian Amos (92.3). In Week 13, he made a season-high nine combined tackles and deflected a pass during a 24–13 victory against the Houston Texans.

On December 31, 2017, Byard recorded six combined tackles, broke up two passes, and intercepted two passes by Blake Bortles in the Titans’ 15–10 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars. His performance earned him AFC Defensive Player of the Week.

He finished the 2017 season with 87 combined tackles (62 solos), 16 pass deflections, and eight interceptions in 16 games and 16 stars. His eight interceptions led the league and he was named first-team All-Pro. Pro Football Focus gave Byard an overall grade of 89.0, ranking fourth among all qualified safeties in 2017.

The Titans finished second in the AFC South with a 9–7 record and received a wildcard playoff berth. On January 6, 2018, Byard started in his first NFL playoff game and recorded five solo tackles during a 22–21 win at the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Wildcard Game.

The following week, Byard made ten combined tackles (nine solos) in the Titans’ 35–14 loss at the New England Patriots in the AFC Divisional Round.

 On January 21, 2018, Byard was selected to appear in the 2018 Pro Bowl as an injury replacement. It marked his first career Pro Bowl. He was also ranked 80th by his fellow players on the NFL Top 100 Players of 2018.

2018 season

On September 16, 2018, Byard threw a touchdown to rookie Dane Cruikshank on a fake punt in the Titans’ 20–17 Week 2 victory against the Houston Texans.

 In a Week 6 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, Byard logged his first interception of the season by picking off Joe Flacco.  In a 28–14 Week 9 victory against the Dallas Cowboys, Byard intercepted quarterback Dak Prescott in the end zone.

After the pick, Byard celebrated on the star at midfield. The celebration was widely publicized as it resembled Terrell Owens’ infamous celebration from the early 2000s. Byard was fined $10,026 for the celebration.  During Week 15 in a 17–0 win over the New York Giants, Byard had five tackles, an interception, and a sack.

He also deflected a fourth-down pass from Eli Manning to complete a shutout against the Giants. On December 22, 2018, in a 25–16 Week 16 victory over the Washington Redskins, Byard made an important late-game interception by picking off Josh Johnson.
