Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Tre McBride earned his way onto the active roster in November after spending the first half of the season on the team's practice squad.

Not simply content to occupy a spot on the 53-man roster, the 2015 seventh-round pick has set loftier goals for next season.

Via Tennessee's official website:

McBride appeared in seven games for the Titans, contributing mostly on special teams. He recorded both his first career catch and touchdown in Tennessee's Week 16 loss to the Houston Texans and finished the season with two receptions for eight yards.

The former William & Mary standout said he plans to remain in Nashville during the offseason working towards becoming an impact player.

As the Titans look for more offensive weapons to help quarterback Marcus Mariota, a breakthrough season by McBride would be a welcome development, both for the receiver and the team.
