Dean Pees' retirement didn't last long.
Pees, who retired Jan. 1 as the Ravens' defensive coordinator citing the desire to spend more time with his family, has been hired as defensive coordinator by the Tennessee Titans.
Pees, though, will be spending more time with his family; his son, Matt, a former high school coach in Colorado, is also joining the Titans' staff, according to the school.
It's a curious about-face for Pees, 68, who said the day after the Ravens' season ended that he welcomed the chance to walk away from the game after "45 years of football, 680 games, over 6,000 practices. ... It's been a great, great run."
