Titans signed K Rob Bironas to a four-year, $12 million contract.
Bironas packs arguably the strongest leg in the league and developed amazing accuracy over the past two seasons. The two-time All Pro has missed just six of his last 35 FG tries from beyond 40 yards and two of his last 37 tries from inside 40. Bironas recently turned 31, but has gotten better with age.

that make him the highest paid kicker in the league. i know we value kickers ALOT, but that seems like a little too much!

Not to me! He is one of the best in the league so we had to do whatever possible to keep him! Kickers are very important to a Titans' offense!!!
