The Facts: The Titans on Monday agreed to terms on a one-year deal with Battle. “The past three years I didn’t know where I was going to be or if I was going to be somewhere until right before training camp,” Battle said Monday night. “So it’s great to know early, and I’m glad the Titans thought enough of me to want to bring me back."

Diehards Line: Battle was a key special teams player for the Titans in 2013, and he provided depth behind running backs Chris Johnson and Shonn Greene. Battle finished last season with 142 yards and a touchdown on 36 carries. He played for the Chargers in 2012 and prior to that played for the Chiefs, where he ran for 597 yards in 2011. Should Johnson be allowed to move on, Battle would move up in the pecking order.
