	Eddie George - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		George won the NFL Rookie of the Year award in 1996, and was the Titans' starting tailback until 2003, never missing a start due to injury.
		George signed a one-year contract with the Dallas Cowboys on July 23, 2004 for $1.5 million plus incentives that could have earned him more than the $4.25 million he would have made under his contract with the Titans, who released him on July 21 in part due to salary cap considerations.
		Eddie is now involved in the restaurant business, with the Eddie George Sports Grille in downtown Nashville, TN, where he played for the Tennessee Titans, and Eddie George’s Grille 27 in Columbus, OH, next to his alma mater, The Ohio State University.
