Jordan Mims has landed a deal in time for training camp. The third-year running back has agreed to a pact with the Titans, Fox Sports’ Jordan Schultz reports. 
This will be a two-year contract, Schultz adds. Mims entered the league as an undrafted free agent with the Bills, but he was among the team’s 2023 roster cuts. Immediately after being released, Mims landed on the Saints’ practice squad and he remained in the organization through the end of the past campaign.
As a rookie, the 26-year-old made a pair of appearances but played only on special teams. Mims’ first offensive touches came about in 2024, and he logged 105 snaps across 11 contests. 20 carries and 12 receptions did not produce any touchdowns, but Mims notched 141 scrimmage yards along the way.
That production helped land Mims a workout with the Browns in June, but no deal materialized. The Fresno State product will instead spend the summer in Tennessee looking to carve out a spot in the backfield. The Titans entered Thursday with more than $30MM in cap space, so this contract will not alter any other free agent plans which are in place.
Tony Pollard recorded his third consecutive 1,000-yard campaign in 2024, and he remains in position to lead the way at the running back spot for Tennessee this season. Tyjae Spears will again operate as a pass-catching backup, while three others backs (Kalel Mullings, Julius Chestnut and Tyrion Davis-Price) are set to compete for a roster spot during training camp. Mims will join that group when players report on July 22.
