Titans running back Chris Johnson has "warmed to the idea" of letting Shonn Greene handle short-yardage carries, reports the Tennessean. The paper notes Greene went 11-for-11 in converting 3rd-and-3 or less for the Jets last season.
“I’m OK with it,” Johnson said. “I never really get any short-yardage plays, so it doesn’t really matter. … That’s just another piece of this offense -- continue to keep the drive going and run more plays.”
The paper expects Greene to be a major upgrade over Javon Ringer and Jamie Harper.
