NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The Tennessee Titans decided to revamp their secondary after giving up 36 passing touchdowns last season. Veteran cornerback Jackrabbit Jenkins (you may know him as Janoris Jenkins) was one of the primary additions. The 32-year-old is on his third team in three years after signing a two-year, $15 million contract with Tennessee.
The new beginning with the Titans coincides with a name change to Jackrabbit. Jenkins says he no longer answers to Janoris -- he just doesn't like it.
He prefers to be called Jackrabbit. Coincidentally, the Pahokee area of South Florida, where Jenkins is from, is known for speedy athletes who catch rabbits as they flee from burning cane fields.
