While the Tennessee Titans would still like to get into the Mario Williams sweepstakes, they are looking at other pass rush options as well. According to a league source, the Titans have inquired about John Abraham of the Atlanta Falcons, who turns 34 in May. Despite his age, Abraham was still extremely productive last season for the Falcons with 9.5 sacks. The Titans may still not be out of the running for Williams, although the Buffalo Bills hosted him on Tuesday and are said to be ready to pay him handsomely, according to the Buffalo News.
