Tennessee locked up one of QB Vince Young's protectors for the next six years.

The team came to terms on a six-year, $38.9 million contract with RT David Stewart on Saturday. The deal includes $10 million in guarantees. Stewart was a fourth-round pick in 2005. The Titans signed LT Michael Roos to a six-year, $43 million deal in April.

Commentary: With their bookend linemen signed to long-term deals, the Titans are able to provide stability for Young, the heart of the team. The Titans are coming off a somewhat unexpected 2007 season that saw them return to the playoffs. Negotiations are still ongoing for DT Albert Haynesworth, who is also seeking an extension.
