Titans Claim Wide Receiver Randy Moss off Waivers from Vikings


The Tennessee Titans claimed wide receiver Randy Moss off the waiver wire on Wednesday giving him the chance to help the team return to the playoffs.

Randy Moss is a seven-time pro-bowler who leads all the NFL players with a total of 153 career touchdown receptions. However, he was dropped to the waiver wire by the Minnesota Vikings earlier this week.

According to the Titans head coach Jeff Fisher, they had the chance to improve their offense and Randy makes a tremendous threat wherever he is playing. The Titans will be bringing him up to speed as fast as possible.

The Titans, with 5-3 score this season, are already half a game behind the Indianapolis Colts in the AFC South. The team is entering their bye week this season and does not play until 14th of November at Miami.

Last season, the Titans missed the playoffs just one year after they had won the division. Since 2004, they were not able to win any playoff games.

The team has been looking for ways to improve their roster. As mentioned by the Titans general manager Mike Reindfeldt, since Randy is apparently a Hall of Fame player, he has the ability to make a difference in their offense.

Randy Moss was with the Vikings during his first seven seasons and had a two-season stint with Oakland. In 2007, he joined the Patriots and stayed with the team until he was exchanged to the Vikings last month for a third-round draft pick.
