The Titans clearly didn't want him, so enjoy New Jersey, Keith.
It’s time for Titans’ fans to start singing some Hall and Oates. He’s gone. He signed with the New York Giants today.
What is left to say about Keith Bulluck’s legacy? He was the team’s post Super Bowl first-round draft pick. You can get a bargain at the end of the first round or you can get Dimitrius Underwood. Bulluck played for ten seasons in Nashville and before last year’s ACL tear had missed one game in his career. He was the team’s defensive leader. Between 2002 and 2006 he had almost 700 total tackles. Don’t forget that he was Mr. Monday night as well.
There has been endless speculation about Wes Welker’s recovery from an ACL tear in January. Bulluck tore his ACL two weeks prior to that. Is he going to play in 2010? I guess the Giants think so. The Titans don’t, and I think he was gone before the injury.
Veteran leadership is in short supply on the defense. Tony Brown, Stephen Tulloch, and Chris Hope are going to have the be the guys. Will Witherspoon is a space-holder. Rennie Curran seems like the heir apparent. Just like when Vince Young signed with the team and the high-end speculation for his career would be to become another Steve McNair, we can hope that Curran becomes another Keith Bulluck. The team could use one.
Chris Johnson needs a RB coach the way Albert Pujols needs a hitting coach. Kennedy Pola, former Jaguars running back coach, took the place of Earnest Byner just a few months ago. Is Byner now on speed dial? In typical Lane Kiffin fashion, he stole Pola away to be the USC offensive coordinator, because when you have a chance to coach a disgraced college program instead of the best running back in the NFL, you do not hesitate.
Lane Kiffin would break up with a girl via text, if she’s lucky.
