Tennessee Titans to sign free agent center Lloyd Cushenberry to fill huge need |

The Tennessee Titans are signing former Denver Broncos center Lloyd Cushenberry per a team announcement Thursday, plugging one of the Titans' biggest holes and giving quarterback Will Levis a veteran presence in front of him on the offensive line.

The Titans are adding Cushenberry after he started four years on the Broncos' offensive line. A former third-round pick out of LSU, Cushenberry rated as the No. 41 free agent on USA TODAY's rankings of the best players available this offseason.

CBS Sports and The Athletic are the first to report the news.

Cushenberry is the second free agent the Titans have reportedly added Monday, joining former Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard.

The Titans came into the free agency window with roughly $80 million available in salary cap space, the second-most in the NFL. Running back Derrick Henry, defensive lineman Denico Autry, linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair, cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting and quarterback Ryan Tannehill all hit free agency this week, a major reason why the Titans have this surplus in cash.

Some of the Titans' biggest needs in free agency this year include adding starters on the offensive line and at cornerback, linebacker and receiver as well as depth pieces at quarterback, running back and safety.
