Dupree excited to join NFL's Titans
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Tennessee Titans failed in their attempts to improve their pass rush in free agency a year ago.
Bud Dupree, their newest pass rusher, is ready to do everything possible to help Tennessee fix that issue once and for all.
“Definitely, I’m going to go out and just play with my hair on fire just trying to get after the quarterback as much as I can creating pressure, trying to get the ball out, just everything I can do just to keep the train rolling man and help those guys on D,” Dupree said Friday.
The Titans introduced Dupree after agreeing to terms on a multi-year deal with the linebacker. Tennessee not only added Dupree but also brought in defensive lineman Denico Autry. The Titans also have signed cornerback Janoris “Jackrabbit” Jenkins in working to fix a defense that was one of the NFL’s worst last season.
Tennessee announced Friday a deal bringing back linebacker Jayon Brown, the Titans’ leading tackler before a season-ending elbow injury last November.
Either Dupree or Autry would have led Tennessee in sacks last season.
