Titans to Work Out WR Matt Jones
The Titans want to add another wide out, and while they have said for sometime that Marvin Harrison is not in their plans, one player that may be is former Jaguar WR Matt Jones. Adam Schefter of ESPN is reporting that Jones will be working out for the Titans on Thursday.
“This is moving quickly,” agent Alan Herman said Wednesday. “We’re ready to go and get a deal done, and we’re optimistic we will. Matt is in outstanding shape, he’s ready to go, and we think Tennessee would be a great fit.”
The Titans are not the only team interested in Jones, as Chicago and Dallas are two other teams that seem to want to at least play around with the notion of talking to Jones. He was a first-round pick of the Jags in 2005, but never lived up to the hype.
Jones, caught 65 passes for 761 yards with the Jaguars last season. In four NFL seasons he has 166 catches for 2,153 yards and 15 touchdowns.

After Mr Jones has his “incident” last spring, all he did was go into Jags camp in the doghouse and emerge as their #1 receiver. 65 catches, 47 for 1st downs is 12 games with a QB that could barely throw the ball down the field. He has all the talent in the world and has something to prove, Jags were stupid to let him go and I’m a Jags fan. He and MJD were pretty much the only play makers on that team last year.
