Titans likely to franchise Bironas?
According to The Tennessean, the Tennessee Titans negotiations with kicker Rob Bironas haven't progressed, which increases the chances the team franchises the kicker.
If the Titans don't tag Bironas or agree on a contract, Bironas will become a free agent on February 27th. The Titans have 13 other players scheduled to become a free agent including Albert Haynesworth, who will be one of the most sought-after free agents this off-season.
Bironas would earn $2.48 million, which is the average of the top 5 kickers' salaries, in 2009 if the Titans franchise him. He earned $1,423,600 in 2008.
Bironas made 29 of 33 field goal attempts last year and was tied for 7th in the NFL in scoring (127).
