Wide receiver Hakeem Nicks trying to earn spot with Titans

Posted Aug 7, 2015
In middle school, Hakeem Nicks got to wear the No. 9 of Steve McNair while playing quarterback for the Titans. Now 27, the veteran wide receiver is trying to earn a job with the same team in the NFL. The Titans signed Nicks to a one-year deal in April, bringing the former first-round draft pick to his third different team in as many seasons and giving Nicks a chance to revive his career.
