Titans/Oilers Hall of Famer Bruce Matthews is joining the Houston Texans coaching staff as a offensive assistant.  I think everyone who has followed Bruce's news stories since his retirement is surprised by this move as Bruce seemed extremely happy being out of the NFL grind.

Not sure what this says about the negotiations with Collins, but the Titans are stepping up their efforts to re-sign Chris Simms.

Steelers WR Nate Washington is expected to visit the Titans soon.

Chris Canty, however, isn't.

The Vikings are sniffing around Chris Carr, but he'd just be a depth addition at CB.  I'm not even sure he'd be the return man there.  He could be that here and actually win games.

From Soldier to Pirate: Kellen Winslow is headed to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for undisclosed draft picks.

Fred Taylor will soon sign with the Patriots.  It's a good move on his part, and may signal that Lawrence Maroney is in trouble.

According to these google news results, the Giants, Seahawks and Lions are all biding for TJ Houshmandzadeh's services.
