How Titans' Simmons saw football as life-changing opportunity

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The bye week couldn't have come at a better time for the Tennessee Titans.

A frustrating 24-16 loss to the Baltimore Ravens pushed the Titans (2-4) to the bottom of the division, causing team captain Jeffery Simmons to suggest his teammates do some soul-searching.

"We need to figure out the guys that want to be out there," the defensive tackle said. "We need to reevaluate our team and figure out who wants to play football for the Titans."

The pain shows on Simmons' face after every loss.
