Titans' beleaguered Malcolm Butler: Patriots just another game

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Cornerback Malcolm Butler, who went from being benched in last season's Super Bowl by the New England Patriots to being a prized free agent for the Tennessee Titans, calls Sunday's meeting against his former team "just another game."

"I know I used to play there. I just have to pick up my performance," Butler said. "It went great there. It didn't end well, but those people showed me nothing but love. I love them back. There's no bad blood."

As for greeting Patriots coach Bill Belichick, Butler says he will mirror whatever greeting his former coach has for him.
