Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel told reporters Wednesday that he has not spoken to free-agent defensive end Jadeveon Clowney since NFL free agency began in mid-March.
Titans general manager Jon Robinson linked the team to Clowney on April 1 by disclosing to reporters that Tennessee had "touched base" with the 27-year-old's representatives.
