The Tennessee Titans Claim Randy Moss off Waivers











The Tennessee Titans are 5-3 but haven’t played the divisional rival Indianapolis Colts or Houston Texans yet. They can still win the AFC South. Or they can miss the playoffs for a second consecutive season.

The Titans on Wednesday, landing the talented, yet twice dumped this season alone, wide receiver Randy Moss off the waiver wire. It’s a gamble, of course. Minnesota went down this road less than a month ago, trading a third-round pick to the New England Patriots for Moss. They cut him on Monday, deciding his antics weren’t worth what he was delivering on the field.

He wasn’t unproductive in Minnesota, catching 13 passes for 174 yards and two touchdowns in four games. For the season he’s caught 22 passes for 313 yards and five touchdowns. He caught 13 touchdowns last season in New England, tied for the league lead.
At 33, he can still play. He’s still the guy who in September blew by New York Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis, causing him to aggravate a hamstring injury, and made a remarkable one-handed touchdown snag. MadOne
