Vince Young is Still Around?

Apparently. Had forgotten all about him. But with Kerry Collins re-signing with the Titans, the Tennessean ran down some reaction from the esrtwhile Titan starting quarterback’s agent. All in all, pretty decent quotes about Young’s approach to 2009:
That decision has no bearing on Vince’s thinking,” Adams said Wednesday. “He is just trying to get himself together, not worrying about what they are doing with Kerry. That doesn’t matter to him.
“Vince is not upset. He is not asking for a trade or anything. He loves the organization, loves (Titans owner) Bud Adams, and he wants to be in Tennessee. But he still wants to play, and is approaching this offseason like he’s going to.”
“Vince wants to be the starter. He has started all his life, so he wants to start,” Adams said. “And he is preparing like he is going to start, doing all the things he needs to do.
“He looks hungrier to me than ever before. I don’t know that he is doing more than he’s ever done, but this is as early as he’s ever started.”
“It’s an important offseason for Vince. He knows it’s important and is doing everything he is supposed to be doing,” Adams said. “He is just preparing to play football. I don’t know if he wants to prove himself or anything like that, he is just a competitor and he is getting ready to play.
“And he is preparing himself like he is getting ready to start, to be the starter.”
Now to see if Young himself feels as his agent says he does. And if he will be able to deal with it when he is sitting behind Collins next fall.
