[The Tennessean] Free agent DT Shaun Smith is leaving the Chiefs for the Tennessee Titans according to his agent, Neil Schwartz. Smith also announced the news via his twitter feed.

Here’s what he said on Twitter (edited for clarity): “Shout out to Chiefs nation, red and yellow and all of the fans in Kansas City, I dearly miss you guys but I had to make a serious decision and I am going to the Titans.”

The now former Chiefs defensive tackle was picked up in March 2010 and turned out to be one of the Chiefs top two defensive linemen last year.

The Chiefs were reportedly negotiating with Smith on a new deal so the Titans must have upped the ante.
