He played college football for the UCLA Bruins, earning first-team All-American honors. Verner was selected by the Tennessee Titans in the fourth round of the 2010 NFL draft. He was voted second-team All-Pro and named to the Pro Bowl with the Titans in 2013. He also played for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Miami Dolphins.

Early life

[edit]

Verner attended Mayfair High School in Lakewood, California, where he played wide receiver, defensive back, linebacker, and special teams. As a senior, he had 50 receptions for 907 yards and 13 touchdowns. On defense, he made 56 tackles and four interceptions (one returned for a 102-yard touchdown). Verner earned second-team All-CIF Southern Section honors and was selected to play in Shrine All-Star Game, where he played for legendary coach Andrew Slome.

Verner also lettered all four seasons in track & field for coach Josh Barker. Prior to high school, Verner won a silver medal in the 1500 meters at the 1997 California State Game, and placed fourth in the 4×100 relay at the 2000 USATF Youth Nationals. As a freshman at Mayfair, he was selected as the team's Most Valuable Performer, and was the league champ in both the 110m and 300m hurdle (45.0) events. As a sophomore, he was the league champ in 4x400 relay, second in 110m high hurdles and high jump (6–2). As a junior, he served as team co-captain, earning Suburban League Academic All-League honors. He was the league champ in the high jump (6–4) and 4 × 100 m relay. As a senior, he had bests of 6–6 (1.98m) in the high jump, 20–10 (6.37m) in the long jump, 10.7 in the 100-meter dash and 39.70 in the 300m hurdles.

An excellent student, Verner held a 4.17 GPA and achieved a 1740 SAT score. He also served as a peer tutor to his high school football team in the subjects of math and history. Considered a three-star recruit by Rivals.com, Verner was listed as the No. 49 cornerback prospect in the nation.[1] He chose UCLA over Boston College, Oregon, and Washington.

College career

[edit]

In his true freshman year at UCLA, Verner finished fourth among his Bruins teammates with 59 tackles and third among his team with two interceptions, while leading the team with 123 interception yards and two touchdowns. He was named co-Freshman of the Year for the Pac-10 Conference (alongside Jairus Byrd and Taylor Mays), and was selected first-team Freshman All-America by College Football News and Scripps/FWAA, as well as second-team by The Sporting News, Scout.com, and Rivals.com.

In his junior year, Verner was a starter in all 12 games, and was second on the team in tackles with 73. He was selected to the second-team All-Pac-10 squad chosen by the league's coaches.

In November 2009, Verner was named one of the twelve semifinalists for the 2009 Jim Thorpe Award.[2]

In his senior year, he started in all 13 games and finished with 72 tackles, of which 51 were solo. He also had five interceptions and 158 return yards, with one of them resulting in a touchdown. He had a second defensive touchdown as a fumble recovery.

Professional career

[edit]

Pre-draft

[edit]

Verner attended the NFL Scouting Combine and performed all of the combine and positional drills. On March 30, 2010, he attended UCLA's pro day and ran all of the combine drills again, but opted to skip the short shuttle and three-cone drill. He was able to earn better times in the 40-yard dash (4.52s) and 20-yard dash (2.63s), while also adding height to his vertical (32.5"). At the conclusion of the pre-draft process, he was projected to be a fourth or fifth round pick by NFL draft experts and scouts. He was ranked as the 18th best cornerback prospect in the draft by DraftScout.com and was also ranked the 24th best cornerback prospect in the draft by WalterFootball.com.[5][6]

[edit]

On June 15, 2010, the Tennessee Titans signed Verner to a four-year, $3.16 million contract that includes a signing bonus of $790,035.[14]

Throughout training camp, Verner competed for starting cornerback against veterans Jason McCourty and Ryan Mouton.[15] Head coach Jeff Fisher named Verner the third cornerback on the depth chart to start the regular season, behind veterans McCourty and Cortland Finnegan.[16][17]

He made his professional regular season debut in the Tennessee Titans' season-opener against the Oakland Raiders and was credited with two tackles in their 38–13 victory.[18] The following week, Verner and teammate Patrick Bailey tackled wide receiver Antonio Brown during an 18-yard return for Verner's first physical tackle of his career during a 19–11 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. He finished the game with two combined tackles.[19] On October 3, Verner earned his first career start after McCourty suffered a broken right forearm the previous week and would have to undergo surgery; the latter missed four games (Weeks 4–7).[20][21] Verner finished his first start with a season-high 11 solo tackles and three pass deflections during a 26–20 loss to the Denver Broncos.

On March 3, 2014, it was reported by The Tennessean that the Titans elected not to use their franchise tag on Verner.[39] The two parties attempted to work on a long-term deal, but were unable to agree to terms on a contract.[40]
