Titans Introduce Five Free Agent Signings on Monday


Al-Shaair (6-2, 228) played 56 games, including 31 starts, for the 49ers after joining the team as undrafted college free agent.

Over his four years (2019-22) with the 49ers, he totaled 199 tackles, two sacks, 11 tackles for loss, two interceptions, seven passes defensed, two forced fumbles and three fumble recoveries.

“I think it’s a great opportunity, and I am grateful to be here, to be a Titan,” Al-Shaair said. “Obviously linebacker right now is a position of need, so I am grateful to be able to come in here and show everybody what I am about, and what I am going to bring to the table.”

Al-Shaair is an aggressive, hard-hitting linebacker. His best season came in 2021, when he set career marks in starts (13), tackles (103), fumble recoveries (2) and sacks (2.0) and matched career-highs in interceptions (1) and forced fumbles (1).

“I’ve always had a high motor,” Al-Shaair said. “That linebacker group that we had (in San Francisco), we felt like we ran the show. At the end of the day, the defense is going to play good if the linebackers play good. And that’s the type of mentality I am trying to instill here as well: If the linebackers are playing good, then everybody else is going to eat. So I just feel like that running, that hitting, that whole mentality that you have to bring, it has to be like that. You have to set the tone and make sure everybody knows: ‘It’s not going to be a pushover. It’s not going to be an easy game.”
