TITANS CONCLUDE SEASON AT HOME AGAINST TEXANS TENNESSEE TITANS (3-13) VS. HOUSTON TEXANS (9-7) NASHVILLE — The Tennessee Titans (3-13) conclude their 2024 season this week with a home game against the division-rival Houston Texans (97). Kickoff at Nissan Stadium (capacity 69,143) is scheduled for noon CST on Sunday, Jan. 5. The Texans have already clinched the AFC South title in 2024. They are locked into the AFC’s No. 4 seed in the postseason, which begins next week with the wild-card round. In the first meeting of 2024, played on Nov. 24 at NRG Stadium, the Titans defeated the Texans 32-27. The contest featured five lead changes, culminating with a 70-yard, go-ahead touchdown reception by tight end Chig Okonkwo with less than 10 minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. The Tennessee victory broke Houston’s three-game winning streak in the all-time series, which the Titans lead 24-21. THE BROADCAST This week’s contest will be regionally televised on CBS, including Nashville affiliate WTVF NewsChannel 5, as well as on Paramount+ in the Nashville market. The broadcast team includes playby-play announcer Tom McCarthy, analysts Ross Tucker and Jay Feely, and reporter Amanda Balionis. 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 at nfl.com/ways-to-watch. The Titans Radio Network and Nashville flagship 104.5 The Zone carry all Titans action across the Mid-South with the “Voice of the Titans” Mike Keith, analyst Dave McGinnis, sideline reporter Ramon Foster, executive producer/gameday host Rhett Bryan and co-host Amie Wells. LAST WEEK AT JACKSONVILLE The Titans were in Jacksonville last week for their second clash with the Jaguars in a four-week span. A drive by the Titans offense stalled at Jacksonville’s
26-yard line in the final minute, preserving the Jaguars’ 20-13 victory. Quarterback Mason Rudolph registered his fifth start of the season and completed 19 of 31 passes for 193 yards. He found tight end Nick Vannett for an eight-yard touchdown. With 1,000-yard rusher Tony Pollard (1,017) inactive due to injury/illness, second-year running back Tyjae Spears recorded his second career start. Spears responded with a career-high 95 rushing yards on 20 carries before exiting in the third quarter due to a concussion. The Titans’ 159 total rushing yards against the Jaguars amounted to their second-best total of the season. On the defensive side of the ball, the Titans limited the Jaguars to 173 net passing yards, marking the 11th time in 2024 that the Titans kept their opponent under 200 passing yards. They enter Week 18 ranked second in passing defense, allowing only 177.9 passing yards per contest, as well as third in overall defense (307.3). THE TEXANS The Texans clinched their second consecutive AFC South after beating the Miami Dolphins on Dec. 15. Since then, they have suffered a 27-19 loss at Kansas City and most recently a 31-2 loss at home against the Baltimore Ravens. Their Christmas contest with the Ravens, played on a Wednesday, provides them 11 days to prepare for the finale against the Titans. Quarterback C.J. Stroud has started every game for the Texans in his second NFL season. The 2023 second-overall draft pick has followed his Rookie of the Year campaign by passing for 3,677 yards with 19 touchdowns and 12 interceptions in 2024. Head coach DeMeco Ryans is in his second year leading the Texans. In 2023, he led his team to a 10-7 record and a division title—Houston’s first playoff berth since 2019. Houston became the first club in NFL history to win a division with a rookie quarterback and first-year head coach, and Ryans and Stroud have combined to repeat the accomplishment in 2024.

\\ OWNERSHIP
AMY ADAMS STRUNK
CONTROLLING OWNER/CO-CHAIRMAN, BOARD OF DIRECTORS Amy Adams Strunk is the Controlling Owner of the Tennessee Titans. She assumed the role of controlling owner in March 2015, and also serves as co-chairman of the franchise’s Board of Directors. Daughter of Titans franchise founder K.S. “Bud” Adams, Jr., Adams Strunk was raised on football and is proud of her father’s role in co-founding the American Football League and the decades of leadership he provided within the National Football League. Her goal is to build upon that legacy and establish the Titans as one of the league’s elite franchises. In her time as controlling owner, Adams Strunk has transformed the franchise. 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 seven 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. Adams Strunk’s dedication to enabling a modern, innovative business has facilitated significant growth in the organization’s staff, increasing by over 150 percent since 2015. Over the years, she has committed significant resources to upgrade
Nissan Stadium and the team’s headquarters, Ascension Saint Thomas Sports Park. In 2023, her direction was instrumental in state and local government approval 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, which by any measure was the most successful in NFL history. Impacting communities has also been an important centerpiece of her ownership tenure, with both monetary and in-kind donations pledged to the Waverly community after its 2021 flooding disaster, tornado relief to Middle Tennessee in 2020, local business support during the effects of COVID-19, and a number of other causes benefitting the Nashville and greater Tennessee communities. A graduate of the University of Texas with a degree in history, Adams Strunk is an avid horse enthusiast whose other interests include farming, ranching, tennis, and a variety of other outdoor activities. She 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 PRESIDENT AND CEO
Burke Nihill is President and Chief Executive Officer for the Tennessee Titans. During his time with the Titans, Nihill has overseen the team’s bid for Nashville’s record-breaking 2019 NFL Draft, the expansion and renovation of Ascension Saint Thomas Sports Park, the Titans practice facility, and most recently, the approval of a public-private partnership to build a new, enclosed stadium as the anchor of a transformational new town center on Nashville’s East Bank. Among his first projects as CEO, Nihill 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. Nihill was recently named a ‘Most Admired CEO’ by the Nashville Business Journal. He also serves on the Board of Directors at Belmont University, Nashville Downtown Partnership, United Way of Greater Nashville, TransPerfect Music City Bowl.

RAN CARTHON GENERAL MANAGER
Ran Carthon was hired by the Titans as the 14th general manager in franchise history on Jan. 18, 2023. In 2024, Carthon was promoted to executive vice president/general manager. His duties expanded to include all areas that impact the football team: roster control, team activities and personnel decisions including draft and free agency acquisitions, oversight of head coach Brian Callahan and his coaching staff, scouting, sports medicine, and player engagement. This past offseason saw a significant makeover of the roster. The team added 14 veteran players during the offseason, including wide receiver Calvin Ridley, running back Tony Pollard, center Lloyd Cushenberry III, cornerback Chidobe Awuzie, wide receiver Tyler Boyd and linebacker Kenneth Murray Jr. The team also traded with Kansas City for cornerback L’Jaruis Sneed. In the draft, the team added size and strength with their top two selections – left tackle J.C. Latham and nose tackle T’Vondre Sweat. In his first year (2023) with the Titans, Carthon added several veteran additions to the roster who
would become key starters for the team, including wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (led the team in receiving yards/receptions), outside linebacker Arden Key (second-highest career sack total), linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair (led team in tackles), cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting (led team in interceptions) and offensive lineman Daniel Brunskill in free agency. In his first draft, offensive lineman Peter Skoronski, quarterback Will Levis and running back Tyjae Spears were selected in the first three rounds, respectively.

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.

BRIAN CALLAHAN HEAD COACH
Brian Callahan was hired by the Titans as the 20th head coach in franchise history on Jan. 24, 2024. Callahan arrived in Tennessee with 18 total years of coaching experience and 14 years of NFL coaching experience, including the previous five seasons (2019-23) as the offensive coordinator for the Cincinnati Bengals. During his time in Cincinnati, Callahan served under head coach Zac Taylor and was part of two AFC North titles, two AFC Championship appearances and a Super Bowl berth. He also helped guide quarterback Joe Burrow from the No. 1 overall draft pick in 2020 to multiple single-season franchise records by his second year and Pro Bowl honors within three years. “Brian has a track record of success and a range of experience that has prepared him for this opportunity,” said Titans controlling owner Amy Adams Strunk at the time of the hire. “His football knowledge and his enthusiasm for the game really stand out, and beyond that, we think his ability to lead will make him the ideal fit for our franchise. “If you look at his history, Brian has been a part of a Super Bowl winning team (Denver, 2015) and two other teams that advanced to the Super Bowl (Denver, 2013; Cincinnati, 2021). He’s worked in a variety of dynamic offenses with top-flight
quarterbacks. At each step of his career, he’s shown the flexibility and intelligence to make an impact. “During his time with the Bengals, he was trusted with a number of responsibilities—offensive design, quarterback development, a contributor to the free agency and draft processes—and showed the ability to be a resource in all of those areas. As we seek sustained success and pursue a championship, Brian has seen firsthand what that looks like, and he is the right person to lead us there.” In the three seasons (2021-23) prior to Callahan joining the Titans, the Bengals offense ranked in the NFL’s top 10 in several categories: sixth in scoring (24.9), seventh in passing (250.8 yards per game), seventh in red-zone efficiency (61.5 percent), 10th in third-down percentage (41.0) and sixth in time of possession (31:00). From the time Burrow entered the NFL in 2020 through the 2023 campaign, he recorded the league’s seventh-best passer rating (98.6) and tied for the third-best completion percentage (68.0). His 270.8 passing yards per game in that period ranked fifth. Additionally, Cincinnati’s offense under Callahan featured a trio of 1,000-yard wide receivers in Ja’Marr Chase (2021-23), Tee Higgins (2021-22) and Tyler Boyd (2019). Chase quickly emerged as one of

the NFL’s top wide receivers after being drafted in the first round in 2021. He earned three consecutive Pro Bowl nods and became the eighth player in NFL history to reach 1,000 receiving yards in each of his first three career seasons, including 1,216 yards on a career-high 100 receptions in 2023. Boyd’s statistical highlights included 1,046 receiving yards in 2019, while Higgins contributed 1,091 yards in 2021 and 1,029 yards in 2022. Bengals running back Joe Mixon exceeded 1,000 scrimmage yards four times in five seasons with Callahan as his offensive coordinator. From 2019 through 2023, he joined Christian McCaffrey and Aaron Jones as the NFL’s only players with at least 4,500 rushing yards (4,618) and 1,500 receiving yards (1,556). Mixon was named to the Pro Bowl in 2021. In 2023, Burrow was limited to 10 total games due to multiple injuries. Backup Jake Browning stepped into the lineup, and in the first action of his career, he registered a season passer rating of 98.4— qualifying as the seventh-best number in the NFL. In 2022, the Bengals ranked seventh in the NFL in points per game (26.1), eighth in total offense (360.5 yards per game) and fifth in passing offense (265.0). Burrow earned his first career Pro Bowl selection while setting single-season franchise records for completions (414) and touchdown passes (35). The third-year signal caller also placed fifth in the NFL with 4,475 passing yards. The team’s new-look offensive line came together during the season and did not allow more than two sacks in any of the final eight games of the regular season. En route to an appearance in Super Bowl LVI, the 2021 Bengals ranked seventh in passing offense (259.0 yards per game) and tied for seventh in points per game (27.1). Burrow, after returning from a knee injury suffered in 2020, led the NFL in completion percentage (70.4) and established single-season Bengals records for passing yards (4,611) and passer rating (108.3). Chase was named the AP Offensive Rookie of the Year after posting a team-record 1,455 receiving yards, while Mixon placed third in the NFL in rushing yards (1,205). In 2020, Callahan helped develop Burrow as a rookie despite facing the challenges associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, including the cancellation
33
of all in-person NFL offseason programs. Before a knee injury ended his rookie campaign in Week 11, Burrow’s 264 completions were the most ever by an NFL quarterback through his first 10 career games, while his 2,688 passing yards were fifth. Callahan joined the Bengals after spending 2018 as the quarterbacks coach for the Oakland Raiders. Under his tutelage, Raiders quarterback Derek Carr passed for a then-career-high 4,049 yards and led the AFC with a 68.9 completion percentage. From 2016 to 2017, Callahan was the quarterbacks coach for the Detroit Lions. Working with Matthew Stafford, he helped the veteran finish third in passing yards (4,446) and fourth in passing touchdowns (29) in 2017, while posting a then-career-best 99.3 passer rating. In 2016, Stafford’s eight gamewinning drives were the most by a quarterback in a season since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger. Callahan broke into the NFL with the Denver Broncos in 2010 and served in multiple roles for the franchise through 2015. He began as a coaching assistant (2010) before transitioning to offensive quality control coach (2011-12), offensive assistant coach (2013-14) and finally offensive assistant/ quarterbacks coach (2015). In 2013, Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning won the Associated Press NFL MVP award after completing a leaguerecord 55 touchdown passes. Callahan’s tenure in Denver was capped by the team’s victory in Super Bowl 50 following the 2015 campaign. Before reaching the NFL, Callahan spent time at his alma mater, UCLA, as a graduate assistant in 2006 and 2007. He then spent two years (2008-09) as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for Junipero Serra High School in San Mateo, Calif. As a former walk-on quarterback at UCLA, he appeared in 13 games as a holder on PATs. He earned a bachelor’s degree in sociology in 2006 and added a master’s in education in 2008. Born in Champaign, Ill., Callahan attended De La Salle High School in Concord, Calif., where he was a part of the school’s national-record 151-game winning streak and a No. 1 national ranking. He and his wife, Allyson, have a son, Ronan, and a daughter, Norah. He is the son of longtime NFL coach Bill Callahan, the current offensive line coach with the Titans.
