Linebacker Bud Dupree Passes Physical With Titans
3 years agoTennessee Titans linebacker Bud Dupree passed his physical on Friday and will be eligible to practice with the team. Dupree was signed to a massive five-year, $82.5 million contract with Tennessee this past offseason. He offers a boost to a Titans defense that ranked 28th in defensive DVOA and allowed 27 points per game (24th). They also tied for 29th in pressure rate (just 7.2%) in 2020. Dupree recorded eight sacks in just 12 games last season and 11.5 sacks in 2019. Serious money went into signing Dupree, cornerback Janoris Jenkins and edge rusher Denico Autry this offseason. Expect the Titans defense to take one of the biggest steps forward this coming season under new defensive coordinator Shane Bowen, but until we actually see it happen, they can begin the season on your league's waiver wire.
