‘"I guess I’m going to have to make some new friends," Linton said. "But that’s great. I’m looking forward to it."’

‘"From what our people feel about him is that he can play running back, fullback, special teams and can do a lot of things and has had success in the league," Titans President Jeff Diamond said. "It’s good to have that veteran type of experience."’

‘He has rushed for 1,002 yards and six touchdowns, and caught 33 passes for 246 yards and two touchdowns during his NFL career.’
