It looks like the Tennessee Titans are ready to move on from the Chris Johnson era and are trying to trade him. Johnson is even willing to take less money to move and there seems to be a market emerging for Johnson.

From Pro Football Talk:

"Per a league source, a trade market is emerging for Johnson.  The market arises from real interest in Johnson from multiple teams."

Ed Werder of ESPN confirms that there is a market for Johnson, however reuniting with his former head coach Jeff Fisher and the St. Louis Rams seems unlikely.

The St. Louis Rams had the 19th best rushing offense in the league last year averaging 109.5 yards per game. Zac Stacy was their leading rusher with 973 yards, so they aren’t necessarily looking for a featured back but it would make an incredible backfield duo.
