A former Tennessee Titans running back is learning scouting.
NASHVILLE — Former Tennessee Titans running back Chris Johnson is looking to give back to the game of football by helping find the next generation of stars.
"I feel like this program, me going through the classes and doing the things they do, it will let me know if this is something I really want to do, really want to get into," Johnson said. "But going into it, I feel like I really do. I enjoy watching film and I enjoy scouting. I think it will be very helpful."
Senior Bowl Executive Director Jim Nagy, an 18-year NFL scouting veteran, will lead the courses that were created by Phil Savage. The goal is for the former players to learn how to navigate NFL scouting departments, including pro/advanced scouting and college scouting. In 2009, Johnson rushed for 2,006 yards with the Titans, setting a single-season NFL record with 2,509 yards from scrimmage. He was honored as the NFL's Offensive Player of the Year and named first-team All-Pro.
