The Titans had immediate interest in Denver unrestricted free-agent center Lloyd Cushenberry and landed him with a deal PFF reports wil pay him $30 million in his first two years, most ever for a center.
Cushenberry should serve as a stabilizing force on an offensive line that needs a great deal of work.
The 26-year-old was a third-round pick out of LSU by the Broncos in 2020 and has started 57 of a possible 66 games in his four NFL seasons. He's listed as 6-foot-4, 319 pounds.
"Just now reaching his prime, he has a nice combination of power and mobility," former Titans scout Blake Bedingfield recently wrote about Cushenberry in a free agency preview for this site. "A big upgrade over (Aaron) Brewer in both the run and pass game. Would bring size and experience in his prime years."
