Posted in The Tennessean reports that QB Kerry Collins says that he’d like to stay with the Titans past this season:
Titans backup quarterback Kerry Collins is scheduled to make a hefty salary in 2010, so he can’t help but wonder what the team has in store for him after Sunday’s regular season finale at Seattle. He is scheduled to make $5.5 million in base salary next season, the final year of a two-year deal. Asked if he’d heard anything from management about his role for next season, Collins said: “I have gotten no indication. It is obviously at this point a backup role. So the question goes to: Do they want to pay me as much as they owe me to be a backup? And that is only a question they can answer.” Collins, who started 15 games last season when the Titans went 13-3, went 0-6 this season before he was benched in favor of Vince Young. “I love it here, my family loves it here. I love playing for Jeff (Fisher), none of that has changed,” Collins said. “I would like to play, and I would like that opportunity at some point. And I am under contract here next year and I plan on honoring it. But I am supposed to make a pretty good chunk of change next year, so I can’t imagine they are going to pay me that kind of money to be a backup. I have no plans to retire.”
