Robert Brazile // Houston Oilers
Hall of Famer Robert Brazile stopped by Titans practice on Friday. He'll be the Honorary 12th Titan prior to the Titans-Ravens game Sunday at Nissan Stadium.
Brazile was a preeminent linebacker in the NFL during a career that spanned from 1975 to 1984 with the Houston Oilers. A consensus All-American at Jackson State, he was drafted by the Oilers in the first round (sixth player overall) of the 1975 NFL Draft. He lived up to the high expectations and was named to multiple All-Rookie teams and earned Associated Press Defensive Rookie of the Year honors.
Noted for his size (6-4, 241 pounds) and speed (4.6 in the 40), Brazile had a reputation as a tremendous hitter and earned the nickname "Dr. Doom" by his peers.
