Ex-Titan Henry lands with Denver

It took Travis Henry only two days to get a job – with a team that turns running backs into stars.

The former Titan and Bill, cut by Tennessee on Saturday, agreed to terms with Denver, which has made one-year wonders of Olandis Gary, Mike Anderson, Reuben Droughns and others, largely because of its schemes.

Henry is more than a journeyman, having rushed for 1,211 yards and a 4.5 average last season for the Titans, who released him after they could not agree on restructuring a contract that called for an $8.3 million bonus. He is getting $12 million in guaranteed bonuses from the Broncos.

The Broncos did not announce the signing, which was disclosed by someone familiar with the deal who requested anonymity because it had not yet been signed.

Day 4 of free agency was a busy one, with Thomas Jones, who helped the Bears win the NFC title last season, traded to the Jets; Brad Johnson signing with Dallas to be Tony Romo’s backup quarterback hours after Leonard Davis joined the Cowboys’ offensive line; Miami releasing starters Joey Harrington and Randy McMichael; the Cardinals signing center Al Johnson; Tampa Bay signing defensive lineman Kevin Carter; and the 49ers adding wide receiver Ashley Lelie.

Jones will go to the Jets for a

second-round draft pick if he passes a physical. A person familiar with the trade told the Associated Press the Jets will give up the 37th overall spot, which it obtained from Washington, for Jones, and will get Chicago’s second-rounder, No. 63.

Davis was unveiled in Dallas after signing for $18.75 million in guaranteed money as part of a $50 million, seven-year deal.

Brad Johnson left Minnesota to sign a three-year deal with Dallas, according to Johnson’s agent, Phil Williams.

Dallas also re-signed placekicker Martin Gramatica.

Miami’s release of Harrington had been expected, in part because he was due a $1 million roster bonus.

McMichael was due a $3 million roster bonus, and his contract was terminated after Miami was unable to swing a trade for him.

Miami signed tight end David Martin to a three-year contract. Martin had 87 receptions for 766 yards and nine touchdowns in six seasons with Green Bay. He caught 21 passes last season and scored a touchdown against Miami.

The Dolphins also dealt receiver Wes Welker to the Patriots for their second- and seventh-round draft picks in April. New England’s

second-round pick is No. 60 overall.
