Scaife was the Titans’ leading receiver in 2008 with a career-high 58 catches, a number that ranked him seventh among NFL tight ends. His agent had said a couple weeks ago that Scaife intended to test the market once free agency starts Feb. 27. The franchise tag means Scaife will earn $4.46 million for 2009, the average salary of the five highest-paid players at his position.
