NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Titans have agreed to terms with cornerback Tye Hill, a former first-round draft choice.
Hill has started 24 games with five interceptions during a four-year career. Last year he started three games for the Atlanta Falcons.
Hill played three seasons in St. Louis before being traded to Atlanta before the start of the 2009 season. His playing time in both 2007 and 2008 was limited because of injury, and he finished both years on injured reserve.
The terms of the contract weren’t disclosed.
The Titans, looking to add depth at quarterback, also met with free agents Patrick Ramsey, who was a backup for the Broncos in 2008, and Chris Simms, who was a reserve with Denver last season.
Vikings sign Montgomery.
The Vikings have signed defensive end Mike Montgomery to a one-year deal.
Montgomery spent the last five seasons with NFC North rival Green Bay. The Packers drafted him out of Texas A&M in the sixth round in 2005.
Montgomery will serve as a backup to starting ends Jared Allen and Ray Edwards.
Eagles re-sign Hobbs, Gocong.
The Eagles have re-signed cornerback Ellis Hobbs and linebacker Chris Gocong to one-year contracts.
Both players were restricted free agents, and each signed his tender offer, the team announced.
Hobbs played in eight games before a neck injury ended his first season in Philadelphia. He averaged 24.1 yards on 20 kickoff returns.
Gocong, a third-round pick by the Eagles in 2006, has recorded 203 tackles, four sacks and one forced fumble in 47 regular-season games, including 35 starts.
Raiders safety Eugene signs tender.
Raiders safety Hiram Eugene has signed his restricted free-agent tender to return to the team next season.
Eugene had signed a waiver to allow him to work out with the team this offseason before signing the contract.
Eugene has been a part-time starter the past three seasons for Oakland.
Report: Ryans, Texans strike six-year deal.
A Houston Texans official tells The AP that star linebacker DeMeco Ryans has agreed to a six-year contract to remain with the team.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the team has yet to make an official announcement.
Ryans was the 2006 AP defensive rookie of the year and led the 9-7 Texans last season.
He was a restricted free agent.
