Mike Mularkey, former head coach of Bills and Jaguars, joins Titans staff as tight ends coach

The Tennessee Titans have hired former Jacksonville Jaguars and Buffalo Bills head coach Mike Mularkey as tight ends coach.

Mularkey coached the Jaguars to a 2-14 record in 2012 and was fired at the end of the season. He also went 14-18 as Buffalo's coach in 2004-05. Mularkey and Titans coach Ken Whisenhunt previously worked together as assistants with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Mularkey said Wednesday in a team release that, "I am excited to be back in the league. I took some time off for family time."

Mularkey worked with the Steelers from 1996-2003 and spent his last three years in Pittsburgh as offensive coordinator. He also has been offensive coordinator for the Miami Dolphins (2006) and Atlanta Falcons (2008-11).
