Agent Wynn Silberman told the Tennessean newspaper that talks continue with the Titans and Bears and free-agent running back Chris Borwn is "getting closer to closing a deal." Silberman said the offers are very similar and "it is very possible that in the next four or five days we will have this thing finished." Brown, a third-round pick by the Titans in 2003, is a graduate of Naperville North who played college ball at Northwestern before following coach Gary Barnett from Evanston to Colorado. "There are good possibilities for both sides," Silberman told the newspaper. "Chris could go to Chicago. It's his hometown; he has family there; he's comfortable there; and there is a possibility they very easily could make another championship run. With Thomas Jones gone, Chris could see himself in the role Jones had last year. "On the other hand, he could come back to Tennessee, where he has a good relationship with Coach [Jeff] Fisher; he knows the system; and he could potentially compete for the starting job. That's compelling too."
