The Tennessee Titans are in the market for another running back and will be considering a familiar face to fill their void.
According to Justin Melo of The Draft Network, the Titans will host running back Jonathan Ward for a workout on Tuesday. Ward appeared in three games for the Titans last season, playing mostly on special teams.

Ward went on to reach an injury settlement that would allow him to play in 2023.

And here we are.
The Titans have just two running backs on their active roster in Derrick Henry and Tyjae Spears, and one on the practice squad in Jacques Patrick, making it likely they’ll add one more. Ward is a solid option thanks to his special teams ability.
