Less than three weeks after being released by the New Orleans Saints, Tuff Harris has been signed by the Tennessee Titans to play defensive back and special teams.
As the newest Titan, Tuff will report immediately to Nashville to begin preparing for Friday night's game at Atlanta.
Details of Tuff's contract were not made immediately available.
Tuff had worked out for Tennessee on Tuesday the 12th in Nashville. Before the workout, the Titans coaching staff informed Tuff they were very interested in his versatility as a safety and cornerback -- as well as his ability to play special teams.
"I felt like I had a pretty good workout and I was told me they would have signed me afterwards but they had to make roster room after their second preseason game," Tuff said in an interview with CrowNews.net.
The Titans wrap-up the 2008 training camp on Wednesday, August 20th. Friday's game at Atlanta will kick-off at 4:30 p.m. Mountain Time and is not scheduled to be televised nationally.
Tennessee is coached by Jeff Fisher, who is the longest tenured coach in the NFL, having been head signal-caller since the 1994 season -- when the team was known as the Houston Oilers. Coach Fisher's son, Brandon, was a cornerback at the University of Montana during Tuff's junior and senior year.
The Titans finished 2007 at third in the AFC South with a 10-6 record, losing in an AFC Wild-Card playoff to the San Diego Chargers.
It is the ability to do the job that matters not where you come from or what you are. do you think so??
