The Tennessee Titans are in the midst of the second wave of free agency after the team made a handful of free-agent deals over the course of the first week.
Tennessee made five signings of outside free agents in total, including deals with linebackers Azeez Al-Shaair and Luke Gifford, offensive linemen Andre Dillard and Daniel Brunskill, and edge rusher Arden Key.
On top of those deals, Tennessee also re-signed three of their own guys in long snapper Morgan Cox, wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and defensive lineman Naquan Jones.
