'given another title' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with communicating as well as being past participle verbs.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?

'man coming back in a rush' is the wordplay.
'coming back' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'a rush' becomes 'reed' (plants found by water).
'man' in reverse letter order is 'nam'.
'nam' put into 'reed' is 'RENAMED'.

'to be' acts as a link.

(Another definition for renamed that I've seen is " Meander (anag)".)
