AP Source: Titans agree to terms with Dupree, Autry, Lamm

Associated Press  

— The Tennessee Titans looked to improve their anemic pass rush with their first two free agent deals, agreeing to terms with linebacker Bud Dupree and defensive lineman Denico Autry, according to a person familiar with the situation. The Titans also agreed to terms with offensive tackle Kendall Lamm, according to the person who spoke to The Associated Press on Monday night on condition of anonymity because the deals cannot become official until the league’s business year starts on Wednesday. The 6-foot-4, 269 Dupree has 39 1/2 career sacks, and he had eight in 11 games last season for Pittsburgh before an injured right knee ended his season. Autry has 30 1/2 career sacks and had 7 1/2 sacks in 14 games last season for Indianapolis.
