Titans want QB Simms to return

The Tennessee Titans have a pair of free agent quarterbacks, Kerry Collins and Chris Simms. And they definitely want one of those quarterbacks back — but it may surprise you who it is. Simms told The City Paper in Nashville, Tenn. that the Titans have contacted his agent about remaining with the team.
- “I do believe they have had some preliminary talks,” Simms said. “They reached out to my agent a little bit and contacted him, and I’ve had people reach out to me in the organization, too. To me, they’ve gone above and beyond by basically calling to say I was still on their radar and that they’d like to get something done.”
Collins has said that he wants to return to the Titans, but only as a starter. Then there’s also the question of former first-round draft pick Vince Young who spent the majority of the season backing up Collins. Are the Titans already bracing for Collins’ departure or are they planning something else?
