Titans QB in Danger? Only If the Wings Were Really Hot

Posted Sep 9, 08 4:57 PM CDT in Sports 

(Newser) – Titans quarterback Vince Young went missing last night in Nashville—sort of. Worried about his "state of mind," coach Jeff Fisher asked the police to be on the lookout for the third-year veteran, who has a sprained left knee. After Young got in touch, it became clear that "the concerns from earlier in the night were unfounded," a police spokesman told the Tennessean today.

"We sat around watching football and eating chicken wings," said a friend. "Everything was fine."
