Titans: Brown's return still a possibility

The Titans taped over Chris Brown's name on his locker and gave his number to second-round pick Chris Henry, but there's still a possibility he'll return to Tennessee to provide the team with some much-needed running back depth. "I think we've had the same interest level in Chris all along, but I think we sort of lost focus for a while once the draft picks came in," Titans GM Mike Reinfeld told the Nashville City Paper. "We've always thought that Chris was a talented football player and that he makes us a better football team."

Of course, the Titans thought so much of him last year that he appeared in just five games and wasn't re-signed following the season. Still, between Henry and LenDale White the Titans have zero veteran presence at the running back position, so Brown's return to a system he knows and has had success in makes sense. Now it's a matter of how incentive-laden a contract the oft-injured Brown is willing to accept. And, as Brown's agent has been quick to point out, there are other teams apparently interested in his services—notably the Patriots, Colts, Packers, and Bears.
