Nashville, TN (World Wide Gamble) - The Tennessee Titans agreed to terms on a multi-year contract with Will Witherspoon on Wednesday.

Witherspoon started last season with St. Louis, but was traded to the Philadelphia Eagles in October. Between the teams, he totaled 92 tackles, one sack and one interception.

"Going into next season, there are some questions to answer at the linebacker spot and Will helps us answer some of those questions," said Titans general manager Mike Reinfeldt. "He has been a quality starting linebacker in this league for a number of years and shown the ability to play all three spots. His final landing spot will be sorted out as the roster is formed, but I would expect him to be in the mix for us at outside linebacker."

Since Carolina selected him in the third round of the 2002 draft, Witherspoon has appeared in 127 games and has totaled 741 tackles, 20 sacks and nine interceptions, two of which he has returned for touchdowns. He spent his first four seasons with the Panthers, then spent the next three-plus seasons with St. Louis.
