Cody Barton Joins Titans On Three-Year Deal

4 weeks ago

Free-agent linebacker Cody Barton agreed to a three-year, $21 million deal on Monday with the Tennessee Titans, his agents told NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. It's a big pickup for the Titans and a big loss for the Denver Broncos after Barton posted three straight seasons of 100-plus combined tackles with the Broncos, Seattle Seahawks and Washington Commanders. In his lone season in Denver, the 28-year-old had 106 tackles (53 solo), 1.5 sacks, two interceptions, five pass breakups, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery returned for a touchdown in 17 regular-season games (14 starts). After three straight strong seasons with three different teams, Barton will head to the fourth team of his NFL career and is expected to be Tennessee's starting inside linebacker. While Barton has only 3.5 sacks in his six NFL seasons, he'll be on the fantasy radar in deeper IDP leagues because of his tackling ability alone.
