KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Logan Ryan vividly remembers undrafted rookie Malcolm Butler's rapid ascension to become a national name. In February 2015 when the two were chasing a Super Bowl XLIX trophy with the New England Patriots, Butler picked off Seahawks QB Russell Wilson on the Patriots' 1-yard line late in the fourth quarter to steal a championship away from Seattle. He was a relative unknown until that one play made him a folk hero.
Ryan, now respected leader of a young Tennessee Titans secondary, talks to his group as if he's baiting them to become the next Butler.
