Former Tennessee Titans Kicker Rob Bironas Dies In Car Crash Late Saturday Night

More upsetting NFL news yesterday from a report by Metro Nashville Police, TN unfortunately entails the fatal car crash of the 4th most accurate Kicker in NFL history. Bironas, had reportedly sped of the course of road and crashed at approximately 11 P.M. just one mile away from his home.

The report states clearly that no drugs or alcohol were seen or found, on person or at the crash site, nor any evidence relating to any drug or alcohol use before the crash. Although released by the Titans only a few months earlier, Bironas was in talks and coordinating workouts for both the Detroit Lions and Tampa Bay Buccaneers and was expected by analysts to return to the field soon.

Bironas was quoted in 2006 as playing in the NFL was his ultimate goal. A goal that he not only accomplished but indefinitely made his own mark on the gridiron. Rob Bironas is the Titan's second all time leading scorer and has the franchise record for 11 game winning FGs (Field Goals).
