Cornerback Malcolm Butler has agreed a five-year deal worth more than $61m with the Tennessee Titans, according to reports.

The 28-year-old, who spent the past four seasons with the New England Patriots, is also reported to receive $30m guaranteed.

Butler's move to Tennessee will reunite him with former Patriots cornerback Logan Ryan, general manager Jon Robinson and first-year head coach Mike Vrabel.

He has eight interceptions and four forced fumbles in 59 career regular-season games (48 starts) since making the Patriots as an undrafted free agent from West Alabama in 2014.
