Shonn Greene will appear at Titans camp

NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Titans running back Shonn Greene didn't show at the team's voluntary offseason workout program as he chose to stay at home with his newborn son.

As those workouts turn mandatory this week, though, it looks like the seven-year veteran will make an appearance as scheduled, according to the Tennessean.

It's not surprising that Greene has announced his arrival there, as he would have been subject to fines following any absence. But with the current situation in the Titans backfield, one wonders what he could do to improve his stature with the franchise.

He won't exactly be the only option when he arrives at St. Thomas Sports Park.

Greene is currently expected to hold the third-string position behind Bishop Sankey and rookie fifth-rounder David Cobb. He carried 171 times in two seasons for 687 yards in Nashville. Due to collect $3.25 million, he isn't much of an option catching passes out of the backfield, either, so he'll have his work cut out for him as he looks to keep his job.
