Drafted in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft, Fulton played four seasons with the Titans. Fulton is coming off a mediocre season cut short by groin and hamstring injuries.
Fulton was placed on season-ending injured reserve in December.
In four seasons, Fulton registered 150 tackles in 42 games, with four interceptions, 25 passes defended, and one sack.

Fulton signs with the Chargers as they enter their first year with Jim Harbaugh as head coach and Joe Hortiz as general manager.
The Chargers’ secondary struggled mightily last season, allowing the third-most passing yards per game (249.8 yards/game).
With the departures of Michael Davis and J.C. Jackson, Fulton will likely be the starting cornerback opposite Asante Samuel Jr if he can beat out Deane Leonard and Ja’Sir Taylor.
