Despite all of his God-given abilities and hype entering the NFL, Tennessee Titans QB Vince Young has earned his way down the Titans' depth chart.

Meanwhile, starting QB Kerry Collins understands what it means to be a team leader.

“In the past, I’ve gone home for a week or so and not been around for a week or two at a time, but it’s more important for me to be here day in and day out,” Collins tells Terry McCormick of the Nashville City Paper. “The young guys, I think I’m more aware of how guys see me and how they view me as a leader of this team. I try to show them that I’m willing to do what it takes in the off-season to get ready for a season.”

“Usually this time of year, I go home and I wait till the very last minute to come back to camp, but I’m going to come back at least 10 days early and make sure that I’m here and doing all the things necessary to make sure I’m ready once camp starts,” Collins said.

Instead of whining, complaining, pouting or whatever, Young, who was named the 2006 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, should be observing and taking notes.
