TITANS HOST BENGALS IN WEEK 4

TENNESSEE TITANS (1-2) VS. CINCINNATI BENGALS (1-2)

NASHVILLE — The Tennessee Titans (1-2) open October with a home game this week against the two-time reigning AFC North champion Cincinnati Bengals (1-2). Kickoff is scheduled for noon CDT on Sunday, Oct. 1.

With the 79th all-time meeting between the franchises, the Titans and Bengals are set to renew a rivalry that began in 1968. The only opponent the Titans/Oilers have faced on more occasions is the Pittsburgh Steelers (80 games).

The Titans lead the series 40-37-1 but have lost the last three times they played, including the last two games at Nissan Stadium: a Bengals win in the 2021 divisional playoffs and another in Week 12 of the 2022 campaign.

This week also marks the Titans’ annual Crucial Catch game. Each NFL team designates one game each season to raise awareness for early cancer detection and risk reduction. Sunday at Nissan Stadium will feature on-field and in-stadium Crucial Catch elements and also present opportunities to honor survivors and those currently battling cancer.

THE BROADCAST

The contest will be regionally televised on FOX, including Nashville affiliate WZTV FOX 17. The broadcast team includes play-byplay announcer Adam Amin, analyst Mark Schlereth and reporter Kristina Pink

Fans in Nashville can stream live Titans games on mobile devices with NFL+, which offers access to local games and all primetime games on phones and tablets. Out of market, fans can watch every Sunday afternoon game with Sunday Ticket. More

information on ways to watch NFL games can be found here.

The Titans Radio Network and Nashville flagship 104.5 The Zone carry all Titans games across the Mid-South with the “Voice of the Titans” Mike Keith, analyst Dave McGinnis, sideline reporter Ramon Foster and gameday host Rhett Bryan

TITANS RETURN HOME FOCUSED ON GETTING TO 2-2

After defeating the Los Angeles Chargers in overtime in Week 2, the Titans looked to keep their momentum going last week at Cleveland. However, the Browns stymied the Titans’ hopes with a defense that accumulated five sacks and allowed 94 total yards. The Browns controlled the ball for more than 38 minutes and won by a final score of 27-3.

Running back Derrick Henry enters this week in striking distance of moving up on the franchise’s all-time rushing list. With 8,498 career rushing yards, he requires only 77 more to eclipse Earl Campbell’s career total (8,574) for second place for the organization behind only Eddie George (10,009).

The Titans defense allowed 78 rushing yards against the Browns to mark the team’s ninth consecutive game in which it did not allow an opposing offense to reach 100 rushing yards. It is the longest active streak in the NFL. The defense notched its 19th consecutive game without an opposing player reaching the 100-yard rushing mark.

THE BENGALS

For the second consecutive week, the Titans will face an opponent coming off

an appearance on Monday Night Football. The Bengals hosted the Los Angeles Rams on Monday night after dropping games at Cleveland and against the Baltimore Ravens in Weeks 1 and 2, respectively. They hung on to defeat the Rams 19-16 behind four field goals by Evan McPherson, 259 passing yards by quarterback Joe Burrow and 141 receiving yards by Ja’Marr Chase

Burrow, the first overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, is in his fourth season. He already owns Bengals single-season records for pass attempts (606 in 2022), completions (414 in 22), passing yards (4,611 in 2021), touchdown passes (35 in 2022) and passer rating (108.3 in 2021). In 2022, he earned his first career Pro Bowl selection.

The Bengals, who are in their fifth season under head coach Zac Taylor, are attempting to win their third consecutive division title. They advanced to Super Bowl LVI following the 2021 season and went to a second consecutive AFC title game at the conclusion of the 2022 campaign.

A TITANS VICTORY WOULD ...

• Improve the Titans’ all-time record at Nissan Stadium to 114-87, including the regular season and playoffs.

• Improve Mike Vrabel’s career record to 52-39 as a head coach, including regular season and playoffs.

AMY ADAMS STRUNK

CONTROLLING OWNER/CO-CHAIRMAN, BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Amy Adams Strunk assumed the role of controlling owner of the team in March 2015. She also serves as the co-chairman of the franchise’s Board of Directors.

In her time as controlling owner Strunk has transformed the franchise through her vision, commitment and decisions that have set the team on an ascending trajectory. Team President/CEO Burke Nihill, General Manager Ran Carthon and Head Coach Mike Vrabel have been tasked with executing her vision. Additionally, she has annually committed significant resources to upgrade Nissan Stadium and the team’s practice facility, Ascension Saint Thomas Sports Park. Strunk also continues to grow the administrative staff for the franchise with significant additions across all departments.

All those changes and investments translated to success on the field as the Titans went from a three-win team in 2015, to posting six consecutive winning seasons (2016-21), playoff berths in four of the last six years, a trip to the AFC Championship game in 2019, back-to-back division titles (2020, 2021) and the top seed in the AFC playoffs in 2021. It was the franchise’s first division title since 2008, first consecutive division titles since 1960-62, first appearance in the AFC Championship game since 2002, and the streak of six consecutive winning seasons was the longest in the “Titans era” (1999-present).

Her direction and leadership were instrumental for state and local government approval in 2023 of a new, enclosed stadium on the east bank of the Cumberland River, which is slated to open in 2027.

In the spring of 2018, she collaborated with Nashville city officials to secure the 2019 NFL Draft for downtown Nashville. By any measure, the 2019 NFL Draft was the most successful in NFL history, drawing a record 600,000 fans to downtown Nashville over the three-day event and setting television ratings records. In June of 2019, Strunk was honored by the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame as the “Tennessean of the Year,” for her role in bringing the NFL Draft to Nashville and her work to transform the franchise into a consistent winner. Impacting communities has been an important centerpiece of her ownership tenure. In 2021, a combined $200,000 (monetary donation and in-kind aid) went to support the Waverly (Tenn.) community following devastating flooding. When

a tornado struck Nashville and Middle Tennessee in 2020, Strunk stepped up to donate $1 million from the Titans Foundation to the Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee to help those affected by the disaster. In July 2019, Strunk presented $450,000 in grant funding to 10 local non-profit organizations.

One of the daughters of Titans franchise founder K.S. “Bud” Adams, Jr., Strunk was raised on football and is proud of her father’s role in founding the American Football League as well as the decades of leadership he provided not only to the Titans franchise, but also to the National Football League. Her goal is to build upon that legacy and establish the Titans as one of the league’s elite franchises.

An independent businesswoman for more than 30 years, Strunk formerly served as President of both Kenada Farms and the Little River Oil and Gas Company. She has also been significantly involved in the family’s farming and ranching businesses.

“I believe in hiring good people and letting them do their jobs,” said Strunk. “Everything should revolve around what’s best for the Titans and not around the owner. While I talk frequently with the leaders of the Titans as I do with all of our family’s companies, the people in our football operations need the control and latitude necessary to create an exciting and competitive team.

22 TENNESSEE TITANS 2023

“Our business staff needs the same freedom in order for our organization to reach its full potential and to continue to create a first-class fan experience at Nissan Stadium. Decisions will always be made based on what is best for the team to reach our goals of becoming one of the elite franchises of the NFL and enriching the communities of Nashville and Middle Tennessee.

“Nashville is one of the most dynamic and rapidly growing cities in the nation with a very promising future,” said Strunk. “We are proud to be a part of Nashville and Middle Tennessee, and we want the Titans to be a leader in providing opportunities for people and businesses in the city and the region to achieve their dreams.”

In 2016, Strunk was appointed to the NFL’s Hall of Fame Committee. Her appointment continues a family legacy, as her father was a long-time member of the committee. Additionally, in 2017, Strunk was named to the Board of Trustees for the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

A graduate of the University of Texas with a degree in history, Strunk is an avid horse enthusiast whose other interests include farming, ranching, tennis and a variety of other outdoor activities. She also served as a volunteer coach of both the boys and girls

varsity tennis teams at her daughter’s high school. Never one to turn down a challenge, during the 2017 offseason, Strunk accepted an invitation to skydive with members of the Army’s Golden Knights to kick off draft week.

Strunk is married to her husband Bill. She has three children — Tracy, Tommy, and Blanche, who are all avid sports fans and outdoor enthusiasts.

BURKE NIHILL

Burke Nihill is in his eighth season with the Titans, and his fourth as the team’s President and Chief Executive Officer. He joined the organization as General Counsel in 2016.

During his time with the Titans, Burke has overseen the team’s bid for Nashville’s recordbreaking 2019 NFL Draft, the expansion and renovation of the practice facility, and more recently, the approval of a public-private partnership to build a new, enclosed stadium in the midst of a transformational new town center on Nashville’s East Bank.

Among his first projects as CEO, Burke led the team’s development of a new mission statement – “Win, Serve, Entertain” – which has become a centering statement for the franchise. The statement guides strategy and decision-making throughout the organization, from the football

team and content creators to human resources and fan engagement.

In his previous roles with the team, Burke led the club’s legal and human resources functions and worked on club initiatives related to state and local government, company culture, and general business planning and strategy for both the Titans and Nissan Stadium.

Before joining the Titans, Burke worked in various legal and management roles across a range of industries, including technology, big-box retail and professional services.

As an advisor to Commissioners Paul Tagliabue and Roger Goodell, Birch held multiple senior-level roles during his 23-year tenure at NFL headquarters. Prior to joining the Titans, Birch served as the NFL’s Senior Vice President of Labor Policy & League Affairs, overseeing the negotiation and enforcement of policies critical to the integrity of the game, including those on substances of abuse, performance-enhancing drugs, gambling and personal conduct. He also advanced the NFL’s legislative and governmental efforts on key issues such as youth concussion prevention and treatment, the league’s tax status and the FCC’s blackout rule. Leading the NFL’s player engagement efforts, he focused on continuing education, financial education, career development and clinical assistance designed to support player and employee off-field success.

Birch began his career as a judicial law clerk for Thomas Wiseman, Chief Judge of the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee, then as an associate at Fulbright & Jaworski in Houston. A Nashville native and graduate of Father Ryan High School, Birch earned degrees from Harvard University and Vanderbilt University School of Law.

Birch serves on several professional and philanthropic governing boards, including the Vanderbilt University Board of Trust; Sports Lawyers Association; Partnership Tennessee; and the Business of Sports School in New York. In May 2021, he was elected to the Board of Directors for Ingram Industries. That same month, he was named a director and committee chair for the federally established Horseracing Integrity and Safety Authority. In January 2022, he was appointed to the Tennessee Access to Justice Commission. He was named a Best of the Bar honoree by the Nashville Business Journal in 2021 and 2022.

Additionally, the 49ers had nine players account for 13 total Pro Bowl selections in the last two seasons (seven selections in 2021 and six in 2022) – evidence of the talented roster the personnel staff amassed.

In his first offseason with the Titans Carthon reworked the roster adding wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins, tackle Andre Dillard, outside linebacker Arden Key, linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair, cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting, tight end Trevon Wesco and linebacker Luke Gifford in free agency. In his first draft, offensive lineman Peter Skoronski and quarterback Will Levis were selected in the first two rounds.

Mike Vrabel is in his sixth season with the Titans after being named the 19th head coach in franchise history on Jan. 20, 2018.

During his first five seasons in Tennessee, Vrabel led the Titans to a 50-37 overall record, four winning seasons, three postseason appearances, two division titles and appearance in an AFC Championship game.

Vrabel, who enters 2023 as the NFL’s ninth-longest tenured head coach with his current team, is the organization’s fourth head coach to serve for at least five complete seasons, joining Wally Lemm (1966–1970), Bum Phillips (1975–1980) and Jeff Fisher (1994–2010). Measured against each member of the group in years one through five of their respective terms, Vrabel’s 50 wins from 2018 to 2022 set a new benchmark, and his .575 winning percentage (50-37) ranked second behind only Phillips, who was 48-32 (.600) in his initial five years with the Oilers.

Vrabel finished the 2022 campaign ranked third in Titans/ Oilers history in total career wins among head coaches. His 50 wins trailed only franchise Ring of Honor members Fisher (147) and Phillips (59).

With playoff appearances in 2019, 2020 and 2021, Vrabel became the sixth head coach in Oilers/Titans history to coach at least three playoff teams. The others are Fisher (six), Jack Pardee (four), Phillips (three), Jerry Glanville (three) and Lemm (three). The Titans won back-to-back AFC South titles in 2020 and 2021, marking the first time the organization accomplished the feat since the Oilers won the first three AFL Eastern division titles from 1960 to 1962. The team had not gone to the playoffs in three consecutive seasons since a seven-year postseason stretch by the Oilers from 1987 to 1993.

Situationally, Vrabel’s teams have fared well among the NFL leaders in several categories. From 2018 to 2022, the Titans had a .640 winning percentage in three-point games (16-9), which ranked second in the league behind only the Green Bay Packers (.658). In the same period, their .855 winning percentage (47-8) in regular season games in which they had a fourth-quarter lead tied for sixth in the NFL. Vrabel’s team was 5-2 in overtime games from 2018 through 2022, tying the Kansas City Chiefs (5-0) for the second-most overtime wins behind the Las Vegas Raiders (73). On the road, the Titans were 28-18 (.561), tying for the league’s sixth-best road record.

From 2018 to 2022, the Titans had the NFL’s second-best rushing offense, averaging 139.9 yards per game on the ground. Only the Baltimore Ravens were better (170.8). The offense ranked first in the NFL in the red zone, scoring touchdowns on 66.8 percent of drives inside the opponent’s 20-yard line (173 of 259), and the Titans also had the NFL’s ninth-best team passer rating at 95.8.

On the other side of the ball, the Titans ranked fourth in rushing defense from 2018 to 2022, allowing 100.2 rushing yards per

contest. Also in that five-year stretch, the Titans were seventh in scoring defense (21.8 opponent points per game).

During the 2022 season, the Titans led the NFL in total number players used for the second consecutive season. A total of 86 players took the field for at least one game, partly as a result of 31 players being placed on injured reserve from the time the roster was cut to 53 players through the end of the campaign. The Titans relied heavily upon their youth, as rookies combined for 145 games played (tied for third in the NFL) and 56 starts (sixth).

The 2022 Titans led the NFL in rushing defense for the first time as a team since 2003. They allowed only 1,307 total rushing yards for a league-best average of 76.9 yards per contest—the second-best finish in franchise history (73.4 in 1960). The Titans also ranked third in third-down defense in 2022, allowing a conversion rate of 34.2 percent (77 of 225).

Following the 2021 season, Vrabel received one of the NFL’s highest honors when he was named the Associated Press NFL Coach of the Year after directing the Titans to a 12-5 regularseason record. The Titans won the AFC South, and they claimed the top seed in the AFC playoff field for the first time since 2008. They did so despite needing to use 91 total players during the season—the most in NFL history in a non-strike year. From after the final preseason roster cuts through the end of the season, the team placed 26 different players on injured reserve and 21 different players on the reserve/COVID-19 list, plus additional practice squad players that received those designations.

The 2021 Titans ranked second in rushing defense (84.6 yards allowed per game), 12th in total defense (329.8), sixth on third down (36.7 percent), sixth in scoring defense (20.8 points per game) and ninth in sacks (43). Offensively, the Titans finished fifth in rushing (141.4 yards per game) despite missing Derrick Henry for nine games due to injury. The offense also ranked eighth on third down (43.6 percent), fifth in the red zone (63.9 percent) and first in goal-to-go efficiency (87.5 percent).

In 2020, the Titans made their second consecutive playoff appearance under Vrabel. The Titans won the 2020 AFC South title with an 11-5 record in the regular season, claiming their best record and first division title since going 13-3 in 2008. They finished with a 5-1 record within the division and a 6-2 mark in road games, all while navigating the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Titans led the NFL in 2020 with a plus-11 turnover differential. Their 23 takeaways ranked seventh in the NFL, while their 12 turnovers were the second-fewest in the league and tied for the ninth-lowest number since the NFL went to a 16-game schedule in 1978.

The 2020 Titans tied for second place in total offense (396.4 yards per game) and ranked fourth in scoring offense (30.7 points per game). They became the first team in NFL history to generate at least 2,500 rushing yards (2,690) and 3,500 net passing yards (3,653) while surrendering 25 or fewer sacks (25). Their 6,343 total yards and 381 first downs established franchise records, while their 491 points amounted to the organization’s second-best total. The Titans joined the 1997 Detroit Lions as the only teams in NFL history to feature a 2,000-yard rusher (2,027 by Henry), a 3,000-yard passer (3,819 by Ryan Tannehill) and a 1,000-yard receiver (1,075 by A.J. Brown).

In 2019, Vrabel led the franchise to the AFC Championship game for the first time since 2002, after posting his second consecutive 9-7 mark in the regular season. His 20 wins over the first two seasons were the second most in franchise history (Pardee, 21 wins) and he became the first head coach to win multiple playoff games within the first two years. The 2019 Titans became just the third team since 1990 to bounce back from a 2-4 start (or worse) and reach a conference title game (2002, Titans and 1996, Jacksonville).

30 TENNESSEE TITANS 2023

The 2019 squad ranked in the NFL’s top 10 in scoring margin (eighth, +71), turnover margin (sixth, +6), offensive yards per play (fourth, 6.12), rushing offense (third, 138.9 yards per game), red-zone efficiency (first, 75.6 percent), total touchdowns (tied for third, 54) and third-down defense (eight, 36.3 percent). Individually, Henry led the NFL in rushing, Tannehill was the league’s highest rated passer and Brown was the NFL’s leading rookie receiver.

In his first season as a head coach, Vrabel guided the Titans to a 9-7 record and to within one game of a playoff berth, all while enduring one of the NFL’s toughest schedules. The Titans played a league-high nine games during the regular season against seven eventual playoff qualifiers, and their four wins against playoff clubs tied for the most in the league. Only New England, the Los Angeles Rams and Carolina had as many. The Titans committed only 82 penalties in 2018. Not only was that number the best in franchise history over a 16-game season, but it was also the lowest total by an NFL team since 2014.

The Titans improved from having the 13th-ranked NFL defense in 2017 to an eighth-overall ranking in 2018 (333.4 yards allowed per game). They finished third in scoring defense at 18.9 points allowed per game, recording their best mark since 2008. The 2018 Titans defense also ranked second in the red zone (44.7 touchdown percentage), 10th on third down (36.6 percent), sixth in passing defense (216.9 yards per game), second in touchdowns allowed (32) and first in fourth-quarter defense (65.9 yards per game).

The 2018 Titans offense relied heavily upon a strong running attack. Averaging 126.4 rushing yards per game, the team upgraded from the NFL’s 15th-ranked rushing offense the year before Vrabel arrived to the seventh-ranked rushing offense in 2018.

Vrabel ascended quickly to his position as a head coach following a 14-year playing career as a linebacker with the Pittsburgh Steelers (1997-2000), New England Patriots (200108) and Kansas City Chiefs (2009-10). He spent three years as an assistant coach at Ohio State (2011-13) and four years on the Houston Texans staff (2014-17), including 2017 as the defensive coordinator, before he was hired to his current post by Titans controlling owner Amy Adams Strunk.

Vrabel’s accomplishments as a player included three Super Bowl wins (2001, 2003 and 2004), one Pro Bowl selection (2007) and an All-Pro honor (2007). He appeared in 206 NFL games and totaled 57 sacks, 496 tackles, 11 interceptions (one returned for a touchdown), 20 forced fumbles and nine fumble recoveries. A cerebral and versatile athlete, he also saw action as a tight end and totaled 10 touchdown receptions. Additionally, his teams advanced to the playoffs eight times (20 postseason games), with Vrabel recording eight postseason sacks and two additional postseason touchdown receptions.

In May 2023, the Patriots organization and owner Robert Kraft announced that Vrabel had been voted by the team’s fans into the Patriots Hall of Fame.

Vrabel has spent his football life around accomplished leaders. After entering the NFL as a player in 1997, he played or coached under Bill Belichick, Bill Cowher, Romeo Crennel, Urban Meyer and Bill O’Brien. He gleaned attributes from each that helped form his philosophies as a head coach.

Upon arriving in Tennessee, Vrabel stated: “We want to build a culture around winning, competitiveness and toughness. Everything we do is going to be geared towards winning and being physical. We want to prepare our players so they know what to do, which will allow them to play fast and aggressive.”

Vrabel likewise made his own indelible impression on the same group of coaches. Upon the trade of Vrabel from the Patriots to the Chiefs in 2009, Belichick, who coached Vrabel his entire time in New England, made this comment: “Mike Vrabel epitomizes everything a coach could seek in a professional football player: toughness, intelligence, playmaking, leadership, versatility and consistency at the highest level. Behind the scenes, Mike’s wit and personality is one of the things we have all enjoyed about coming to work every day. The toughest aspect of my job is the day I stop coaching people like Mike, who did everything in his power to contribute to team success. Of all the players I have coached in

my career, there is nobody I enjoyed working with more than Mike.”

Vrabel joined the Titans after four seasons with O’Brien at the Houston Texans, spending the first three seasons (2014-16) coaching linebackers and one year (2017) as the team’s defensive coordinator. During his time in Houston, the Texans built one of the top defenses in the NFL and experienced tremendous success as a team, earning division titles in 2015 and 2016.

In 2017, Vrabel’s first year as a defensive coordinator, the Texans finished the campaign with 19 players on injured reserve. Despite the setbacks, he led the defense to the fifth-best thirddown percentage in the NFL and a franchise-record 3.97 yards per carry by opponents. Houston also had 18 different players record at least half a sack and 26 players tally at least one tackle for loss.

As the Texans linebackers coach from 2014-16, Vrabel helped mold several top-notch performers within his position group, including Jadeveon Clowney, Whitney Mercilus, Benardrick McKinney and Brian Cushing. During those three seasons, the Texans defense ranked third in the NFL in yards allowed per game (319.9) and net passing yards (218.4). Houston also ranked first in third-down defense (33.6 percent), fourth in opponent completion percentage (59.5) and sixth in points allowed per game (19.8).

The 2016 Texans ranked number one in the NFL – for the first time in franchise history – in total defense, surrendering only 301.3 yards per game. The defense also gave up the fewest first downs per game (17.0) and second-fewest net passing yards per game in the league (201.6). Clowney, Mercilus and McKinney all earned second-team All-Pro honors, while Clowney was named to the Pro Bowl for the first time in his career after posting then personal bests with 52 tackles, six sacks, 16 tackles for loss and 17 quarterback hits. Mercilus led the team in sacks for the first time in his career with 7.5 quarterback takedowns and tied for the NFL lead with four defensive fumble recoveries. McKinney led the team with a then career-high 129 tackles and became the second player in franchise history with over 100 tackles and five sacks in a season.

The 2015 Texans had the top third-down defense in the NFL, allowing a 28.5 percent conversion rate, which was the lowest percentage in franchise history and the lowest by any NFL team since the 2003 Titans (27.7 percent). The 2015 defense also set a franchise mark with 45 sacks – 22.5 of which came from Vrabel’s linebacking corps. The 2015 squad also finished third in the NFL in net yards per game (310.2) and net passing yards allowed per game (210.4) and tied for seventh in points allowed per game (19.6). Cushing’s 110 tackles led the linebacking corps and were the third-highest mark of his career. Mercilus enjoyed the best year of his career as he set a personal high with 12 sacks.

Prior to joining the NFL coaching ranks, Vrabel transitioned immediately from an NFL player to college coach. He started as the linebacker coach at Ohio State in 2011 and coached the defensive line from 2012–2013. In 2012, the Buckeyes finished the season undefeated at 12-0, and Vrabel was named Big Ten Recruiter of the Year by ESPN.com. That same season, he coached four Ohio State defensive linemen who were either drafted into the NFL or signed free agent contracts.

Vrabel was selected by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the third round (91st overall) of the 1997 NFL Draft after playing four years at Ohio State (1993-96). With the Buckeyes, he was a dominant performer, earning back-to-back All-American honors and becoming the first two-time winner of the Big Ten Conference Defensive Lineman of the Year Award (1995 and 1996). He graduated from Ohio State with a degree in exercise science.

Joined by former Ohio State teammates Luke Fickell and Ryan Miller, Vrabel co-founded the 2nd & 7 Foundation. The nonprofit’s mission is “to promote reading by providing free books and positive role models to kids in need while encouraging young athletes of the community to pay it forward.” Founded in 1999 in Columbus, Ohio, the 2nd & 7 Foundation now has reading programs across the country. Students receive books from the foundation’s original “Hog Mollies” series.

A native of Akron, Ohio, Vrabel attended Walsh Jesuit High School. He and his wife, Jennifer, have two sons: Tyler and Carter.

TENNESSEE TITANS NEW STADIUM APPROVAL

was always about more than football. This vote unlocks the East Bank Vision for Nashville’s next generation. It enables a true smart growth plan for the decades ahead. It will expand our transit network, create affordable housing, build parks and civic space, activate the waterfront, and drive resilience and sustainability.

After extensive collaboration with Metro Nashville Council, the Metropolitan Sports Authority and Mayor John Cooper, the Tennessee Titans received final approval from all governing bodies to move forward with plans to build a new, enclosed stadium set on Nashville’s East Bank.

Metro Nashville Council issued the final approval on Wednesday, April 26, in a vote of 26-12. The Metro Nashville Sports Authority, the owner and landlord of both the current and new stadium, unanimously approved the stadium agreement on April 4.

“For more than 25 years, Nashville, Tennessee, has been the Titans’ home, and with the approval of the new stadium agreement, we are grateful to know the Titans will be a part of this great city and state for decades to come,” said Titans controlling owner Amy Adams Strunk. “I remember the early days of our time here feeling all the promise and opportunity ahead, and I feel that same enthusiasm and excitement again today. We are thankful for the support of Mayor Cooper, Metro Council, the Sports Authority, the State of Tennessee, and most importantly, the people of Nashville and Tennessee as we all embark on this new chapter together.”

The stadium agreement includes a new 30-year lease and non-relocation agreement between the Titans and the Sports Authority. The terms of the new agreement remove the current obligation of Nashville’s General Fund to maintain and upgrade the stadium and returns 66 acres of land to the City of Nashville previously restricted by parking lots through 2039. The City has announced plans to include the returned property in the creation of a new neighborhood set along Nashville’s Cumberland River. The neighborhood, through new revenue sources generated by its development, is projected to bring in over a billion dollars to Nashville’s General Fund over its first 30 years of development.

The team will also contribute nearly $48 million over the life of the lease to the Nashville Needs Impact Fund, a fund directed by the Metro Council to support city needs such as public education, public transit, affordable housing, and several other areas.

“Tonight is a huge win for Nashville taxpayers,” said Nashville Mayor John Cooper. “We’ve eliminated a billiondollar liability created by an aging stadium lease and created a platform for the city to thrive for decades. This

Mayor Cooper continued: “It allows us to build a transformational north-south boulevard. From neighborhoods across the city, this plan will cut commute times by getting cars off the interstate for intracity trips. It will allow frequent, fast, affordable bus service with dedicated lanes connecting residents to jobs and new opportunities. This is how a city effectively manages growth. It creates a bright future for Nashville, and I’m grateful for Metro Council’s support and confidence in this plan.”

The stadium is currently estimated at 1.75 million square feet, with a capacity of approximately 60,000. It is anticipated to bring in year-round events, with aspirations to host Super Bowls, NCAA Final Fours, College Football Playoffs, Wrestlemanias, and more. It will also continue to host Tennessee State University home football games, extending the long-standing partnership between TSU and the Titans. The stadium will include a 12,000 square foot community space to host classes for local schools, job trainings, and other community-minded events.

Groundbreaking is expected to occur in early-to-mid 2024, with an opening anticipated in 2027. It will set a goal of achieving a U.S. Green Building Council LEED Gold certification. Titans games and other major events will continue to operate in the current Nissan Stadium until the new building opens.

“Today marks a huge milestone for both the Tennessee Titans organization and the City of Nashville as we move forward with plans for a new stadium,” said Titans President and CEO, Burke Nihill. “We are extremely excited about this building’s ability to host the world’s best and greatest events, but this agreement is about so much more than a stadium. This is a generational opportunity to address our city’s priorities and ensure its health and vitality for the next 30 years. Our city and our state have bright futures ahead, and we’re humbled by the opportunity to continue to be a part of it.”

The Titans are responsible for $840 million of stadium funding and any cost overruns. $500 million will come from a contribution from the State of Tennessee. The remaining $760 million of the $2.1 billion budget will come from revenue bonds issued by the Metro Sports Authority to be repaid through a one-percent increase in Davidson County’s hotel occupancy tax, in-stadium sales tax, 50 percent of sales tax from future development of the stadium’s campus, rent paid by the team, and a pre-existing ticket tax of three dollars per ticket sold that will carry over to the new building. The stadium budget includes stadiumrelated infrastructure required to open the building.
