Titans' Eddie George wants to be relased A.S.A.P.

Eddie George, Tennessee's all-time leading rusher, rejected the Titans' latest contract offer yesterday and asked the team to release him quickly so he can seek a job with a new team. George and Lamont Smith, his agent, considered the Titans' offer over the weekend, but the proposal had not changed significantly from what the team initially offered in March. "I'm not accepting it," George told the Associated Press last night. "My expectation when making the decision is to be released. At that point, I'm looking at other options." Smith said he told the Titans earlier yesterday that George had rejected the offer and wanted to be released. He was told that team officials wanted to "kick it around" and get back to them. "Eddie was clear to me - no more discussions," Smith said.
