Why would they release Travis Henry? Good job Titans. There goes next season.

Bad move by the Titans.They nearly made it to the playoffs and with a young team like that they didn't need many improvements.As for the bright person who said they don't need him they have Vince Young you need a mixed attack of run and pass,not just pass.

Frankly, I was surprised. It is a testament to their irresponsible cap management that they allotted him so big a signing bonus and felt they couldn't pay it. Travis Henry is easily superior to the pair of aging backs Jamal Lewis and Ahman Green, and I believe Rhodes is set to sign with some one. Oh well....I suppose they could just trade the Bills for their next running back, who happens to be a little worse than Henry with bigger off-the-field concerns(bad attitude, more paternity suits than years in NFL). Of course....the asking price this time is a 2nd, not a 3rd....

It's not that bad of a move. With the NFL already jacking up the cap, plus not having to pay Henry, there'll be a lot more room for the Titans to maneuver to get a solid free agent or talented rookie to give them youth in their RB corps, which is something they haven't had in a while!

Yes, Travis Henry was good. But look what free agent running backs are there. There's Jamal Lewis, Ahman Green, and of course they could sign him back. This could actually be a big step up for them. This could the help they need.

Man, he was actually good last year for the Titans. Lendale White? man this is a bummer. Maybe Young can pick up for the rushing yards
