The Titans on Thursday hosted return man Mark Jones, a former University of Tennessee star who played last season with the Panthers.

The team is continuing to explore its options in the event Chris Carr leaves in free agency.

Jones played at Tampa Bay and the New York Giants prior to joining the Panthers in 2008.

In his career he has just 2 catches for 32 yards -- both catches coming last season. He has been primarily a return man instead. A year ago Jones averaged 24.0 yards on 40 returns. The fifth-year pro has a career average of 24.2 yards.

"I think they are just trying to take a look at him in the event Carr signed somewhere else,'' said agent Brian Levy, who represents Jones. "I've talked to some other teams about him, so we'll see.''

Also on Thursday, cornerback Eric Green agreed to terms with the Miami Dolphins. Green visited the Titans last week on a free agency visit.

In addition to Jones, the Titans also remain interested in return man Justin Miller, who also visited with team officials last week. Miller played last season the the Jets and Raiders.

Ha...I thought this was another Jones...I thought Tenn. lost their mind.

Mark is a solid player, I just don't think he was ever in our long terms plans and was only here because RR got hurt. Fox still sees it as his job and Jones is just an afterthought.

Mmmmm, Carr...

As crappy as oaktown has been the past few years, he excelled at KR. I think he's just a decent CB. He is small but he's hella fast.

Wiki: In 2006 he became the Raiders all-time leader in kickoff returns with a total of 142 for 3,514 yards.

Yes, that's where I was thinking more than CB...

      Give Legette another season?

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.

      Nah we just talking about giving a platform and normalizing predators (who both beat women) opinions and celebrating it if it fits your narrative.  If that's fun I'm fine being a miserable fug by not supporting P.O.S like that. N b4 you call me a libtard or some other dumb ish know I'm an Anarchist/Libertarian and believe both these dudes should get a complete ass whooping (at min) or something worse for what they have done to women in this world.
