Tennessee Titans WR Kenny Britt Arrested After Car Chase

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Kenny Britt was arrested Tuesday after a car chase in his hometown of Bayonne, New Jersey, according to Jay Glazer of FOX Sports.

Britt is charged with eluding a police officer, lying to an officer and obstructing governmental function. The eluding police charge is a felony, while the other two charges are misdemeanors.

According to the report, police attempted to pull Britt over after he was clocked driving 71 mph in a 50-mph zone. When an officer attempted to pull Britt over, he took off in his Porsche and began weaving in and out of traffic.

The vehicle eventually exited the highway and police spotted the Porsche on a side street with Britt and another man walking away from the vehicle. Britt told the officer neither of the men were in the car. At one point during the back and fourth with the officer, Britt's friend took off running. He was apprehended by police a short distance away.

The report goes on to say, Britt finally admitted that the car was his, but told authorities he wasn't driving at the time of the incident.

According to FOX Sports, Britt is the tenth NFL player arrested since the lockout began on March 11.

NFL Lockout's Impact On The Tennessee Titans

The Titans have a new head coach, new offensive and defensive coordinators and no quarterback. New head coach Mike Munchak and his staff will try and change a culture with the Titans that has eroded over the past couple of years. Between a lockout and the departure of Jeff Fisher after 16 years, the Titans best approach in 2011 might be to give the ball to Chris Johnson 40 times a game. They will struggle to compete in 2011.

2011 Fantasy Football Scouting Report: Jake Locker, QB, Tennessee Titans


2011 Projected
  750 yds.
  5 TDs
     7 INTs

With the arrival of Matt Hasselbeck, Locker will watch from the sidelines for Tennessee. Locker still has a chance to play this year, mostly because of Hasselbeck's past health concerns (back). Locker has the physical tools to be a very good quarterback in the NFL. He can make every throw required by an NFL quarterback, he can make plays with his legs (projected: three rushing TDs) and he's shown tremendous leadership qualities. Locker is a project quarterback who will have very little fantasy football impact in 2011.
