Jim Wyatt is reporting that Dick LeBeau will join the Titans coaching staff. LeBeau's title will be assistant head coach/defense:

Wyatt's follow up tweet said this:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-partner="tweetdeck"><p>LeBeau will be in charge of the defense with the <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Titans?src=hash">#Titans</a>. Ray Horton will remain DC with team.

Ray Horton worked for LeBeau from 2004-2007 with the Pittsburgh Steelers. This sounds a lot like the situation the Titans had when Gregg Williams was brought in for the 2013 season with a similar title and Jerry Gray remained the defensive coordinator. That didn't go so well, reportedly. Hopefully the LeBeau/Horton marriage will work out better.
