NORMAL -- With the National Football League (NFL) lockout ending yesterday, teams are now scrambling to get their rosters ready for competition in just a few short weeks.
At 12:20 pm today ESPN Tampa Bay 1040 AM radio announced that the Tennessee Titans will sign undrafted free agent and former Alabama A&M offensive lineman Anquez Jackson.
Jackson started in all 11 games for the Bulldogs in 2010. The former All-SWAC lineman measured 6-foot-3 3/4, 332 pounds at his Pro Day Wednesday, March 9, reports Gil Brandt, of NFL.com.
He ran the 40-yard dash in 5.30 seconds and 5.38 seconds, the short shuttle in 5.29 seconds and the three-cone drill in 8.16 seconds. He measured a 26-inch vertical jump, an 8-foot-6 broad jump and completed 22 repetitions on the 225-pound bench press.
“Anqez was always a good player for us. He has quick feet and the size,” said Alabama A&M head coach Anthony Jones. “I wish him the best in the NFL.”
The Titans open camp on Friday, July 29, for the first time for the 2011 season .
