“It was a blessing to play 10 years in this league. It wasn’t always easy, but it was always a good time,” – Griffin told ESPN on Sunday afternoon. “I wish I played every second of my career here. But I always felt like a Titan, even when I wasn’t a Titan. I’ll always remember playing in front of those fans in Nashville. I wish the current Titans a ton of success.“
Michael Griffin spent nine seasons with the Tennessee Titans, playing in 141 career games for the team. During his time with the Titans, Griffin recorded 25 interceptions and seven sacks alongside 11 forced fumbles and six fumble recoveries.
