Titans sign veteran DB Briean Boddy-Calhoun

Briean Boddy-Calhoun has joined his sixth NFL team. The veteran defensive back is signing with the Titans, reports NFL insider Aaron Wilson.

After appearing in 43 games through his first three seasons in the NFL, the cornerback has been limited to only four contests over the past two seasons. He stayed unsigned for most of the 2020 campaign, but after joining San Francisco’s practice squad in December, he managed to get into one game for the 49ers, appearing exclusively on special teams.

While Boddy-Calhoun‘s recent inability to stick around the league is worrying, the former undrafted free agent showed enough to stick around the NFL during his stint with the Browns. In total, the 28-year-old has seen time in 47 games (22 starts), collecting 151 tackles, three interceptions and three sacks. The cornerback has spent time with the Jaguars, Browns, Texans, Colts and 49ers.

This transaction follows the Titans placement of defensive back Chris Jones on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Boddy-Calhoun‘s ability to play both cornerback and safety provides him a better opportunity at a roster spot, and he could provide some experience to a team that added three defensive backs in this year’s draft (Caleb Farley, Elijah Molden and Brady Breeze).
