Transcript

On March 22nd, the Tennessee Titans General Manager Mike Borgonzi brings over 15 seasons of experience from the Kansas City Chiefs.

He's already signed a few former Chiefs this off-season, like Cornerback Joshua Williams and Punter Tommy Townsend.

Now the Titans hosted veteran Titan Jody Forts in for a visit, thanks to Borgonzi's familiarity with him from Kansas City.

Fortsin started as an undrafted free agent with the Chiefs after the 2019 draft.

He stuck around for five seasons, winning three Super Bowls and showing flashes with nine catches for 108 yards and two touchdowns in.

2022, after a short stint with the Miami Doffins last year, injuries hit hard, including a torn Maniscus and ACL in preseason.

The Titans' tight-in room looks crowded already. Gunner Helm holds the starting spot, with Daniel Belinger signed to a big deal and veteran Kylin Granson added for depth.

Still, they're checking Fortsin's health after his recovery to see if he fits as a low-key boost.

Borgonzi's history-scouting undrafted guys like Fortsin makes this visit feel natural.

It could give Fortsin a shot to get back on track in the league.

Fans will watch if the Titans pull the trigger, especially with training cam nearing and roster spots up for grabs.
