Why is there a dead beaver in the Titans' locker room? All we know is offensive lineman Taylor Lewan wanted it for his birthday, which was in July. According to ESPN's Titans beat writer, Paul Kuharsky, "Steve is a regular in the locker room."
More from Kuharsky : "[Cornerback Curtis] Riley said it's part of a locker room beef between some of the offensive line and the defensive backs. 'Steve's plotting. We've got to stay on our toes.' Riley was willing to pose with Steve, but refused to touch him."

"He has an amazing attitude," receiver Harry Douglas said about Steve, the dead beaver. "Never complains."
Long live "Steve the beav."
