Titans release Shonn Greene, choose youth at running back (The Associated Press)

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Tennessee's decision to release veteran Shonn Greene kicks the Titans' youth movement at running back into full gear.

Greene had stayed away from the Titans' offseason program until the start of the team's three-day mandatory minicamp on Tuesday. He showed up, passed his physical and then was released with one year left on his contract at $3.25 million.

That leaves the Titans with Bishop Sankey and Dexter McCluster among the running backs with NFL experience in that group.

They drafted running back David Cobb and fullback Jalston Fowler in May, and Antonio Andrews was undrafted last year.
