NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - The Tennessee Titans ended their stalemate with quarterback Steve McNair on Wednesday and traded the former MVP to the Baltimore Ravens pending a physical.
"We have granted permission to Baltimore to give Steve McNair a physical, which we expect to take place in the next 24 hours," the team said in a statement. "Upon passing a physical, final trade terms will be agreed upon."
McNair, who turned 33 in February, was the winningest quarterback in franchise history. In 11 seasons, he went 81-59 and led them to their only Super Bowl in 2000. He and Peyton Manning shared the league's MVP award in 2003.
McNair won a grievance last week that allowed him to return to the team's headquarters and work out after being told he couldn't April 3. The Titans had been trying to renegotiate a cheaper stipend for McNair to lower a $23.46-million US salary cap hit.
