The League Today 5/14/12

     Jason Peters will need a second Achilles surgery after re-injuring it. Derrick Gunn of Comcast Spertsnet reports that according to a league source, Peters re-injured his Achilles "after the Roll-A-Bout he was using malfunctioned." Peters, a five-time pro bowl selection, injured his Achilles initially on March 27th. Peters is suing the company that made the product.

   The Titans are in the market to signing a safety. The team will be hosting two of the better safeties in free agency. Former Dolphins S Yeremiah Bell and former Bengals S Chris Crocker. Both players were released by their team after last season, and the Titans are looking to add some depth at the position.

     The Chargers have signed all of their draft picks. The Chargers are now the fifth team in the League to sign all of their draft picks. Drafting guys like Melvin Ingram, Kendall Reyes, Brandon Taylor, and Edwin Baker. All of their picks are now under contract and no distractions going into training camp.

     Tim Hightower returns to the Redskins. Hightower and the Redskins have agreed to terms on a contract. It looks that Hightower will be the starting running back with the Redskins in 2012. Hightower has some company. Running backs Evan Royster and Roy Helu have proved that they have something to offer at the position as well so it should be a real good battle for time on the field.

     Broncos defensive line coach Wayne Nunnely, has retired from coaching. The sixty year old Nunnely has been coaching for thirty-six years, and the past seventeen were in the NFL. Defensive assistant Jay Rodgers will be the new defensive line coach.
