Linebacker Will Witherspoon Signs Three Year Contract With Tennessee Titans

Jim Wyatt from The Tennessean confirms that the Titans have agreed with linebacker Will Witherspoon to a three year, $11 million deal. Witherspoon visited the Titans Tuesday afternoon. This helps the Titans at the linebacker position, since Keith Bulluck and David Thorton are still big question marks for next season in Nashville. Witherspoon was let go by the Eagles last week partly because he was scheduled to earn $5 million next season.

Spoon....

I don’t really know how to feel about this…i like the signing but does this mean the end for bulluck???? hope not

I think its the end of Bulluck in TN...

Mcgrath, Tulloch and Spoon are our linebackers now. Witherspoon will do fine at weakside or strongside. The guy can play.

And true to form

the Tennessean article chose a play that makes him look bad to attach to their article. They’ve done that with every Titans FA signing I can remember.

I prefer the double horse collar manuever...

soft focus Chris Carr

getting burned for a TD?

In looking for this one again, I noticed there were plenty of normal pics of him running with the ball for the Raiders

Not a bad pickup,

decent stopgap type of player to fill a void for a year or two, at a reasonable price.

Yeah I support this move

but I still want to see KB back in this lineup

RIP Steve McNair (1973 - 2009) Retire #9!
