NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Titans general manager Jon Robinson isn't satisfied with running a slightly above-average squad, and he's making offseason moves in hopes of earning leaguewide respect as championship contenders. Free agents are noticing.
References to the Titans becoming "Patriots Southeast" only increased after Robinson signed former New England cornerback Malcolm Butler and running back Dion Lewis with Tennessee's first two outside free-agent moves. Josh Kline, a guard the Titans picked up off waivers from the Patriots in 2016, also re-signed on a four-year deal with Tennessee this offseason.
