NFL Pro-Bowl Safety Blaine Bishop Talks Texans Signing Former Titans

Blaine Bishop, former NFL safety, 4x Pro-Bowler and host on 104-5 The Zone in Nashville, joins Next Up to discuss the Houston Texans signing linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair and edge rusher Denico Autry, two free agents that spent their last season playing for the AFC South rival Tennessee Titans.

Al-Shaair agreed to a three-year, $34 million contract with the Texans, reuniting with head coach DeMeco Ryans who was his defensive coordinator with the San Francisco 49ers. Autry agreed to a two-year, $20 million contract. The veteran defensive end had 50 tackles, 11.5 sacks and two forced fumbles last season. "Pass-rushing is an art, and [Autry] has perfected it," Bishop said.

Bishop also provides insight into the future of the Titans, who just signed former Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard to a three-year, $24 million deal. Quarterback Will Levis will most likely lead head coach Brian Callahan's offense. The Titans went 6-11 last season, but Bishop says "the potential is there" for this new Titans team.
