Titans to Franchise Bo Scaife

Busy Titans expected to franchise TE Scaife

Quote:

With Tennessee able to sign kicker Rob Bironas and unable to tag defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth, the Titans today will use their franchise player designation on tight end Bo Scaife, a league source said.

Scaife will become the first tight end to be tagged this offseason and will be assured of making the tight end franchise number of $4.46 million — though he will not be able to test the free-agent market, as he had hoped. Tennessee could not risk losing Scaife, who last season led the Titans in receptions with 58.

Re: Titans to Franchise Bo Scaife

Well apparently Haynesworth's demands to become a free agent were enough to make the Titans blink. Franchising Scaife is not a bad idea because the number for tagging a Tight End is so low, and he's such a big part of their passing game.

Re: Titans to Franchise Bo Scaife

Yeah he has been a very consistent player for the Titans for the price it makes perfect sense to franchise him since Hanes wants to test the FA market.
