They got ride of Wade and replaced him with Gage. The Titans are silly.
Titans agree to terms with WR Justin Gage

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee agreed to terms with receiver Justin Gage on Friday, moving to fill a gaping hole on its roster.
The four-year veteran has 64 receptions for 908 yards and four touchdowns in 49 games, 16 starts, for the Chicago Bears.
"Justin is a big, physical and athletic receiver, who has a good deal of playing experience with the Bears," Titans general manager Mike Reinfeldt said in a statement. "He gives us a different body-type and he will compete for a role within our receiving corps."
Gage was drafted in the fifth round of the 2003 draft by Chicago. He posted his best season in 2005 with a career-high 31 receptions for 346 yards and two touchdowns. Gage's agent did not return a call Friday.
He was signed a day after Philadelphia signed wide receiver Kevin Curtis, who had also visited Tennessee.
Tennessee released Drew Bennett and Bobby Wade at the start of free agency, creating a big need at wide receiver in addition to holes at cornerback and on the defensive line.
