Titans G.M. Mike Reinfeldt says there has been some interest from other teams in trading for disgruntled QB Vince Young.
“We have had some discussions. But nothing is imminent with him. There is some (interest), but it is hard, though,” Reinfeldt told The Tennessean.

A trade is unlikely, though, because of Young's contract. He's due $4.25 million 10 days after a new CBA is reached, and then he has an $8 million base salary for '11. The likely scenario is the Titans will attempt to trade Young but then give up soon after the CBA is completed and release him.
On the open market, Young is sure to find multiple suitors, even though he had repeated run-ins with coach Jeff Fisher during his tenure in Tennessee. Young does have a 26-13 record as a starter, even though he lost his starting job twice in his five-year career, including last season.
Young completed 59.6 percent of his passes in '10, throwing for 10 touchdowns with three interceptions. His 98.6 passer rating last season was the highest of his career.
As for the Titans in '11, Young will certainly not be there and backup QB Kerry Collins is 38 and a pending free agent. The team expects to add a veteran and a rookie this offseason.
"I think there's still a possibility we'll sign someone in free agency or get a veteran guy in a trade," Reinfeldt said. "And then the choice will be finding value, whether it is the first, second or third round, where we end up taking a quarterback in the draft."
