Linebacker Kenneth Murray and cornerback Chidobe Awuzie signed with the Tennessee Titans.

Murray, a former first-round pick of the Los Angeles Chargers, signed a two-year, $18 million contract according to ESPN and NFL Network. He had 321 tackles in four seasons with the Chargers.

Awuzie played 32 games in three seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals, where he lined up across from coordinator Brian Callahan's offense in practice. Callahan was named Titans head coach in January.

The Titans have had multiple swings and misses on cornerbacks in recent years in the draft and free agency.

Awuzie's three-year deal is worth $25.5 million and runs through 2026, ESPN reported.

Awuzie was drafted by the Dallas Cowboys in 2017 and left to join the Bengals as a free agent in 2021. He recovered from a torn ACL in 2022 to rejoin the Bengals in time for training camp last summer.
