SECOND-YEAR JUMP

Titans OLB Harold Landry Making a Bigger Difference in 2019 By Jim Wyatt

WHEN LINEBACKER Harold Landry looks back at his flaws from his rookie season, one of them centered on perfection. “I think last year, my rookie year, I was too worried about being perfect,” Landry said. “This year I am playing loose, and just going out there and trying to wreak havoc and make plays and not worry about always being in the right spot. I just want to be disruptive.” Landry has been a difference-maker in 2019. Through 14 games, Landry leads the Titans with nine sacks this season after recording 4.5 a year ago. Earlier this season, Landry recorded a career-long streak of four consecutive games with at least one sack. Landry needs one sack to become the first Titans player with double-digit sacks since Brian Orakpo (10.5) in 2016. A second-round pick in the 2018 NFL Draft out of Boston College, Landry has 13.5 career sacks in his first 29 contests, and he had 11.5 sacks in his first 25 NFL games. The only previous Titans/Oilers players to record more sacks than Landry in their initial 25 NFL outings? Jevon Kearse (17.5) and Anthony Cook (12.0). Landry said he’s added more moves to his pass rush repertoire and considers himself “way more developed in using my hands compared to a year ago.” A year ago, Landry relied primarily on his speed, so his different moves have helped. Landry has loved making an impact. “It’s definitely lit,” Landry said with a smile. “I love making plays and other guys making plays and getting hype about it. That’s when it’s the most fun, when you have everybody in the defense making plays – we are all just feeding off of one another’s energy, so I think it has been awesome.” Some good news? Landry thinks he can be even better down the stretch. Heading into Sunday’s game against the Saints, Landry has 76 tackles on the season, with 25 pressures, four tackles for a loss, an interception, a pass defensed, a forced fumbled and two fumble recoveries. “I feel like there is definitely another level I can take,” he said. “I’ve left some opportunities out there on the field, but that is part of the game and I am just trying to finish … strong and get into the playoffs and take it from there.” TENNESSEE TITANS GAMEDAY

TOP COMMUNITY HONOR Ben Jones Named Titans Nominee for Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award By Jim Wyatt

WHEN TITANS CENTER Ben Jones entered the NFL with the Texans back in 2012, he worked to establish himself on the football field with veteran players around him. Jones was also paying attention to his teammates off the field. And he saw how involved many of them were in the Houston community, from Matt Schaub to Owen Daniels to Chris Myers. “I wanted to be able to raise a family like them,” Jones said, “and I wanted to do something to help others with the platform that we have – those guys really opened my eyes.” After spending his first four NFL seasons with the Texans, Jones arrived in Tennessee in 2016, and he got to work. And in 2017, Jones and his wife, Alex, established The Jones Mission to provide at-risk youth with opportunities they might otherwise not have through grants, additional resources and educational opportunities. 22

In the past three years, Jones has made a big difference – and his work hasn’t gone unnoticed. Jones is the 2019 Titans recipient of the Walter Payton Man of the Year award. Jones is now a finalist for the league-wide 2019 Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award that will be awarded during the upcoming Super Bowl week. This prestigious NFL award has been in existence since 1970 and it honors players who demonstrate outstanding balance in their lives between civic and professional responsibilities. In 1999, the NFL renamed the award after the late Walter Payton as a tribute to his greatness, both on and off the field. “It is something that is definitely appreciated,” Jones said of the award. “But the reason you give back is to help people out and to see the impact you can make on kids, and to see the joy you bring them when

Man of the Year.indd 22

12/17/19 2:53 PM

you take them to games, bring them to practices, and you are able to help their facilities. It means a lot. I get so much joy by seeing how happy they are and how much they benefit from all the guys on our team that are caring and supporting our foundation.” During each of the past three offseasons, Jones and his wife have hosted the annual Ben Jones Celebrity Clay Shoot, a skeet shooting tournament, to raise money for local youth-serving non-profit organizations. The three events combined have raised more than $400,000 benefitting The Jones Mission Fund. Through The Jones Mission Fund, Jones said they’ve been able to serve more kids each year in after-school programs. As a result of the 2019 clay shoot, The Jones Mission was able to donate $40,000 to Endure Athletics and $45,000 to Preston Taylor Ministries. With their grant, Preston Taylor Ministries was able to open a new location for after school programs. “We’ve done counselors for homeless kids who are in after-school programs,” Jones said. “We’ve done things with the church to bring kids and their mentor to a Titans game. If it’s from an after-school program, if it’s sending them to camps, if it’s bringing them to football games, if it’s getting them the skill they need outside, a tutor. “The more time they are able to be around positive role models and getting to have an experience and knowing they can get out of where they are. I want to give kids something to look forward to. I just want to give kids a chance. We’re just trying to give a kid that needs a little extra help a shot.” Here’s a deeper look at Jones, and his work in the community: • Ben’s childhood adversity – his father was killed in a helicopter crash just a few months after his 10th birthday – planted the seeds of a strong and still-growing passion for helping kids in need, and he strives daily to be a role model and show children experiencing hardship that anything is possible through hard work, determination, and prayer. • Renovations to the Nashville Ronald McDonald House kitchen and dining room were completed this summer, courtesy of a $88,000 grant from the 2017 clay shoot. The 2017 event also allowed Ben and Alex to expand and remodel the computer lab at Youth Encouragement Services. The computer lab was also unveiled over the summer. • In 2018, the event raised $33,000 for Endure Athletics, $22,000 for Backfield in Motion and $33,000 for Alive Hospice. • Every year, Ben sponsors a trip to a Titans game for the seniors on the football team at his high school

(Bibb County HS) in Centreville, Alabama. The experience includes round-trip transportation from his hometown, tickets, a private tailgate, swag bags plus a meet-and-greet with Ben and tour of the Titans practice facility after the game. • Ben also hosts a “Friday Night Lights” free youth football camp in Centreville every June for kids ages 8 through 14. • The Jones Mission is also very active during the holidays as Ben sponsors Christmas shopping events for families in his hometown in Alabama and locally in Nashville. • In addition to his work with his own Foundation, Ben is also actively involved in team-organized community events and programs, appearing on behalf of the team at local schools, hospitals, fundraising events, 5K races and more. Jones credited all the sponsors, and everyone who has supported his events over the years. And he gave thanks to his wife, Alex. “She backs it all up,” Jones said. “She is the busy bee behind everything, checking every box and making sure it flows right. It wouldn’t get done if it wasn’t for her.” All 32 nominees will receive a donation of up to $50,000 in their name to their charity of choice. The winner of the Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year award will receive a $250,000 donation to the charity of their choice. All donations are courtesy of the NFL Foundation and Nationwide. As a nominee, Jones will wear a Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year helmet decal through the end of the season in recognition of his accomplishments on and off the field. Jones said because the Titans organization, and locker room, has such a giving culture, it makes the award special for everyone. Titans defensive lineman Jurrell Casey’s was the team’s Walter Payton Man of the Year recipient in 2016 and 2018. Titans linebacker Wesley Woodyard was the team’s recipient in 2017. “We have multiple guys that are coming to my events, going to other events. It is a family, and you want to support each other,” Jones said. “Logan (Ryan) is always there, Jurrell is always there, Delanie (Walker) is always there. So many guys are always there to support me, and we support each other. “All those guys are just as worthy as me, and they have foundations and are doing everything they can, putting in the extra hours to help the community as well. So many guys are just as worthy. Really, all of us just want to do our part to help and make a difference in the lives of others.” TENNESSEE TITANS GAMEDAY

TOP HONORS

Elizabethton High School’s Shawn Witten Named 2019 Tennessee Titans High School Coach of the Year SHAWN WITTEN of Elizabethton High School has been named the 2019 Tennessee Titans High School Coach of the Year after leading his football team to a 15-0 season and winning the Class 4A state championship. Coach Witten is 121-41 in 13 seasons at Elizabethton. Witten outscored his opponents 181-46 in the postseason, including a 30-6 win over Springfield in the Class 4A Blue Cross Bowl. The 2019 title is the first state championship for both Coach Witten and Elizabethton under the TSSAA’s modern playoff format that was established in 1969. “Shawn Witten is a great coach who we are proud to recognize,” said Josh Corey, Tennessee Titans Football Outreach Manager. “In his 13 seasons at Elizabethton, he has created a strong program that embodies many of the qualities that we celebrate at the Tennessee Titans. The success that he and his team have had this season, culminating in a State Championship title, speak to the hard work and dedication that they devote to their craft. We look forward to the continued success of Coach Witten and the Cyclones.” As the 2019 Tennessee Titans Coach of the Year, Witten will receive a grant in the amount of $2,000 from the Titans Foundation to benefit his football program, as well as an all-expense paid trip to the 2020 Pro Bowl in Orlando, Fl. Coach Witten’s selection also qualifies him for the Don Shula NFL High School Coach of the Year award, honoring high school football coaches that display the integrity, achievement and leadership exemplified by the coach with the most wins in NFL history, Don Shula. The Don Shula NFL High School Coach of the Year award winner – announced in January – receives $10,000 and his high school football program is awarded $15,000. The Titans’ High School Coach of the Year award is an extension of the High School Game of the Week and Coach of the Week programs. Each Coach of the Week (11 total) received a grant from the Tennessee Titans in the amount of $1,000 to benefit his school’s football program. All 12 award winners – 11 Coach of the Week winners and the Coach of the Year – will be recognized during the Titans vs. Saints game on Sunday, December 22.

DELANIE WALKER NOT READY TO CALL IT QUITS “This is Not the End for Me” By Jim Wyatt

DELANIE WALKER’S 2019 SEASON is over, but he’s not ready to hang up his cleats. The Titans tight end recently said he wants to keep playing football and believes in time his troublesome ankle will allow him to return to form. The Titans placed Walker on Injured Reserve last month. “This is not the end for me,” Walker said on a night he hosted a pizza party and took children on a shopping spree. “This is a setback. And if anyone knows the type injury I had, it ain’t easy to come back and play at 28

a high level like I do. I just want to get it fixed and be ready for next year. “I still have a year on my contract, and I am a Titan. So as long as the team, the organization, wants me here and believes in me, I am always going to be a Titan.” Walker, who struggled health-wise this season with the ankle he had surgery on last year, ended up playing in seven games in 2019. He finished this season with 21 catches for 215 yards and two touchdowns. Walker was inactive for four games leading up to him being placed on IR.

“It was tough, and it hurts that I am not able to help my team out, and they are doing such a good job this year and I am excited about what going on with the team,” Walker said. “And that’s the disappointing part, in that I feel like I am letting myself down and the team not being able to perform at the highest level. But I know once I get this taken care of I’ll be back to normal and that is the goal.” In his 14-year playing career, Walker has 504 catches for 5,888 yards and 36 touchdowns. Walker said his ankle started to get even more tender after returning to the practice field last month, and the decision was made for him to not play any more in 2019. “Pretty much I practiced, and I felt good, but as the week progressed I felt like it wasn’t getting better the way I thought it was,” Walker said. “I just felt like I wasn’t going to be myself, and I didn’t think I was

100 percent to protect myself on the field. We had a conversation, the team and I, and we felt it was best that I try and get it fixed and get ready for the future.” To celebrate the holiday season, local children from Napier Elementary joined Walker for a holiday shopping spree at a local sporting goods store. Walker also hosted the kids for a pizza party, where he surprised them about their shopping spree and Woom Bikes USA giveaway. It was Walker’s 7th Holiday Night Out in partnership with the Delanie Walker Gives Back Foundation. “Some of them were so excited, they cried out of excitement, and that goes a long way,” Walker said. “I set out to try and change lives and being able to have the platform that I do by being in the NFL means a lot to me and I know it means a lot to guys on the team. Just to be able to impact the community we live in (is important to me).”

GROUND BREAKING EXPANSION Titans celebrate beginning of renovations at Saint Thomas Sports Park

THE TENNESSEE TITANS celebrated the beginning of construction on an expansion project at Saint Thomas Sports Park with an official ground breaking ceremony on Dec. 13. The plan includes 60,000-square-feet in additions, including a new building situated along one of the practice fields, and major renovation of spaces within the existing 75,000-square-foot building to nearly double the size of the current structure. “I am thrilled to what this project will mean to the Tennessee Titans and I look forward to decorating our new lobby with a Lombardi Trophy,” Titans owner Adams Strunk said. Strunk was joined at the ceremony by Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee, U.S. Senators Lamar Alexander and Marsha Blackburn and Jamari Brown of the Mayor’s Office of Economic and Community Development, among other local leaders. 30

AMY ADAMS STRUNK Owner and Co-Chairman, Board of Directors

AMY ADAMS STRUNK assumed the role of con-trolling 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. She hired Jon Robinson as General Manager and Mike Vrabel as head coach, while also in-stalling Steve Underwood to the position of President and CEO. Additionally, she has annually committed significant resources to upgrade Nissan Stadium and the team’s practice facility, Saint Thomas Sports Park. Strunk also continues to grow the administrative staff for the franchise with significant additions across different departments. All those changes translated to success on the field as the Titans went from a three-win team in 2015, to 9-7 records in the past three campaigns and a playoff win at Kansas City in 2017. The playoff victory was the first for the franchise since 2003, and the three consecutive winning seasons are first in the “Titans” era (1999-present). 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. 36

The Draft resulted in $224 million in economic impact and $133 million in direct spending for the Tennessee economy, which were both NFL high-water marks. In June, 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 to a consistent winner. A year ago, the Titans launched the “We Stand For” campaign, designed to bring attention to the causes that are important to the team’s players, coaches and executives. This past July, Strunk presented $450,000 in grant funding to 10 local non-profit organizations to help aid their causes. 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 is the owner and president of both Kenada Farms and the Little River Oil and Gas Company. She has been significantly involved in the family’s farming and ranching businesses, including serving as the vice president of Bud Adams Ranches, Inc. These ventures pro-

Strunk.indd 36

vided her valuable knowledge about customer service as well as the opportunity to manage a diverse range of employees and business operations, and these experiences have shaped her management style. “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. “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 the 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.” Engaged in the process of improving all aspects of the franchise, Strunk has the best interest of the football team and the fans on her mind as she makes her decisions. As evidence of that engagement, the Titans have become one of the best home teams in the NFL, posting a 16-4 home mark in the last 20 games leading into the 2019 season. 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. In 2018, she added an appointment to the NFL’s Super Bowl and Major Event Advisory Committee. 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. TENNESSEE TITANS GAMEDAY

STEVE UNDERWOOD President and CEO

STEVE UNDERWOOD returned to the Titans on March 20, 2015 to serve as the team’s interim President and CEO, and had the interim tag removed in January of 2016. He now leads the franchise as the President and CEO. Underwood has four decades of experience in a number of roles with the franchise, including that of Senior Executive Vice President/General Counsel/COO at the time of his initial retirement in 2011. Prior to his initial retirement, Underwood assumed the position of Senior Executive Vice President, General Counsel in August of 2006 and moved from Houston to Nashville. He oversaw the organization in Nashville and 38

reported directly to the team owner, K.S. “Bud” Adams, Jr. Since he joined the franchise in 1991, he has served as General Counsel for the franchise. He also served as General Counsel for KSA Industries, Inc., the private holding company of Titans’ owner K. S. “Bud” Adams, Jr. Underwood was heavily involved in issues related to the franchise’s relocation to Tennessee, including his role as one of the Titans’ principal negotiators with local governments in Nashville, Memphis and Houston. Underwood raised five children, including daughters Christy, Melissa, Providence and Liberty, and son, Dennis, who passed away in 2011. Underwood and his wife, Frances, currently live in Nashville.

JON ROBINSON

Executive Vice President/General Manager JON ROBINSON enters his fourth season as the team’s general manager. He was hired in January of 2016 and was promoted in 2017 to executive vice president/general manager. Robinson’s work in his first three years helped the team go from three wins in the season prior to his arrival to three consecutive 9-7 seasons and a Divisional Round playoff finish following the 2017 campaign. He became the fifth general manager in franchise history to have the team in the playoffs within his first two full seasons. Robinson also is the only general manger during the “Titans” era (1999-present) to oversee three consecutive winning seasons. Robinson turned over 80 percent of the Titans roster in his first three years on the job. At the end of the 2018 campaign, 43 players on the club’s 53-man ros40

ter (81.1 percent) were added after Robinson arrived in Tennessee—27 free agents, two players acquired via trade, one waiver pickups and 13 draft picks. An additional nine players he acquired (six free agents, two draft picks and one waiver claim) ended 2018 on injured reserve. In 2019, Robinson added key veterans to bolster the roster, including five-time Pro Bowl OLB Cameron Wake, G Rodger Saffold and WR Adam Humphries. Additionally, he engineered a trade that brought QB Ryan Tannehill to the Titans from Miami. Robinson also was able to keep two key contributors on the roster, re-signing S Kenny Vaccaro and two-time Pro Bowl punter Brett Kern. On draft day, Robinson added Mississippi State DL Jeffery Simmons in the first round and Ole Miss WR A. J. Brown in the second round.

TENNESSEE TITANS GAMEDAY

Robinson.indd 40

8/2/19 7:31 AM

Early in the 2018 unrestricted free agent signing period, Robinson targeted a pair of former New England Patriots: CB Malcolm Butler and RB Dion Lewis. During the 2018 NFL Draft, Robinson used trades to move up three times as he selected linebackers Rashaan Evans and Harold Landry. During the 2017 offseason, Robinson used free agency to address needs on defense and special teams. Most notably, he spearheaded deals for CB Logan Ryan (New England), S Johnathan Cyprien (Jacksonville) and special teams Pro Bowler Brynden Trawick (Oakland). In the 2017 NFL Draft, Robinson spent first-round picks on WR Corey Davis (fifth overall) and CB Adoree’ Jackson (18th overall). It marked the first time the franchise had a pair of first-round draft selections since 1987. Overall, the members of the 2017 draft class combined for 76 games played and 42 starts as rookies. In his first year as an NFL general manager, Robinson’s leadership and decision-making helped the Titans triple their win total from the previous season, finishing 9-7 in 2016 after a 3-13 finish in 2015. The six-win improvement tied for the most in franchise history (1967 and 1974) and doubled the previous club benchmark for the most wins in the first year under a new general manager (three by Bum Phillips in 1975). Within the first four months at his post, Robinson pulled the trigger on several key personnel decisions. On March 9, 2016, he made his first major acquisition, swapping fourth-round draft picks with the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for RB DeMarco Murray. The trade provided major dividends in 2016, as Murray led the AFC and ranked third in the NFL with 1,287 rushing yards. Around the same time, Robinson began to work the free agent market. Center Ben Jones and WR Rishard Matthews highlighted the haul, and both were instrumental in helping to transform the Titans offense into the 11th-ranked unit in the NFL in 2016. Jones started all 16 games and keyed a rushing attack that ranked third in the league, while Matthews set career highs with 65 receptions (tied for the team lead), a teamhigh 945 receiving yards and a team-high nine touchdown receptions. The latter number tied for sixth in the NFL and tied for ninth in franchise history. On April 14, 2016, two weeks before the NFL Draft, Robinson and the Titans dealt the first overall pick to the Los Angeles Rams in one of the biggest trades in recent NFL history. The Titans gave up the No. 1 pick and a fourth-rounder in order to receive the 15th overall pick, two second-rounders and a third-rounder in 2016, plus the Rams’ first- and third-round picks in TENNESSEE TITANS GAMEDAY

2017. From 1990–2015, there were seven trades involving the No. 1 overall pick, but this was the first since 2004, when the San Diego Chargers selected Eli Manning with the first pick and dealt his rights to the New York Giants. The Titans had their hands at one point or another on 17 selections in the 2016 draft due to five different trades (including one trade in 2015), and in the end, they ended up with a class of 10 players, including four of the top 45 picks. Robinson swung a draft-day trade with the Cleveland Browns to move back up to the eighth slot to choose Michigan State tackle Jack Conklin. All 10 members of Robinson’s first draft class played in at least one game in 2016. They accumulated a total of 110 games played and 38 starts, including 16 starts at right tackle by Conklin. The eighth-overall pick capped his successful rookie campaign by being named first-team All-Pro by Associated Press. Other rookies in 2016 who made significant contributions included second-round RB Derrick Henry, third-round S Kevin Byard and fifth-round WR Tajaé Sharpe. Byard earned first-team All-Pro honors and a Pro Bowl berth in his second season. Robinson arrived in Tennessee with a wide range of experience from working his way up on the personnel side of the NFL. From 2014–2015, he served as director of player personnel for the Buccaneers and oversaw both college and pro departments as the team rebuilt its roster. The 2015 Buccaneers draft class made a significant impact, including four rookie starters: QB Jam42

eis Winston, OT Donovan Smith, G Ali Marpet and LB Kwon Alexander. Prior to joining Tampa Bay, Robinson spent 12 years with the New England Patriots, including his last five years (2009-13) as the director of college scouting. In the five years heading up their college scouting, the Patriots added a number of key components to their roster that won the Super Bowl in 2014, including WR Julian Edelman, DB Devin McCourty, TE Rob Gronkowski, OT Nate Solder and DE Chandler Jones. He joined the Patriots as an area scout in 2002, a role he served for four seasons. Robinson then spent two years (2006-07) as a regional scout, before being promoted to assistant director of college scouting in 2008 and then director of college scouting in 2009. In his time scouting for the Patriots the team won 10 division titles, four conference titles and two Super Bowls (2003, 2004). Robinson played three years at Southeast Missouri State as a defensive lineman after starting his college career at the Air Force Academy. Following his college career as a player, he spent one season (1998) coaching at his alma mater and three years (1999-2001) coaching at Nicholls State. A native of Union City, Tenn., Robinson and his wife, Jaimie, have two daughters, Taylor and Bailey. He and his wife are deeply involved in the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), as the disease affects their oldest daughter, Taylor. In 2018, the Robinsons chaired the JDRF Gala in Nashville which raised over 1.8 million dollars for diabetes research.

MIKE VRABEL Head Coach

MIKE VRABEL was hired as head coach of the Titans on Jan. 20, 2018. He became the 19th head coach in franchise history. 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 navigating one of the NFL’s toughest schedules. The Titans played a league-high nine games during the regular season against seven eventual playoff teams, 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, it was 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

(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 he arrived to the seventh-ranked rushing attack 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 (2001-08) 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

TENNESSEE TITANS GAMEDAY

Vrabel.indd 44

8/2/19 7:33 AM

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. 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. O’Brien had this to say on Vrabel: “When you are around guys like Mike you know that it is inevitable that he is going to be a head coach. He is a great leader, and he did an excellent job for us

developing players, coaching the defense. He is a very, very hard worker, and he has a really good presence about him. He cares about people, and he has a great family … When you walk into the room in front of a team, you have to have ‘it,’ and he’s got ‘it.’” 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 third-down 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 TENNESSEE TITANS GAMEDAY

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 (17.0) per game and second-fewest net passing yards (201.6) per game in the league. 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 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 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 46

(310.2) and net passing yards (210.4) allowed per game 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. A native of Akron, Ohio, Vrabel attended Walsh Jesuit High School. He and his wife, Jennifer, have two sons: Tyler and Carter.

TENNESSEAN OF THE YEAR Titans Owner Amy Adams Strunk Honored as 2019 Tennessean of the Year by Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame

TITANS CONTROLLING OWNER Amy Adams Strunk received a standing ovation at the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame banquet in June while being honored as the 2019 Tennessean of the Year. After a video played recognizing her work in the state – from helping bring the 2019 NFL Draft to Nashville to her generosity in the community to the resurgence of her football team – Strunk gave thanks to football fans in the state, stating she was honored to receive the award on a night when the 2019 Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame class was inducted. The star-studded class included Kippy Brown, David Cutcliffe, Charles Davis, Kara Lawson, Peyton Manning, George Taliaferro, Bob Tillman, Kimberly Anne Valek and Patrick Willis. “I am just awed when I look at the inductees and what they did in their careers,” Strunk said. “I am just happy to be here and I’m so appreciative.” The Tennessean of the Year award “honors an individual or organization that has made significant 56

contributions to our society through sports or other methods, demonstrating strong character and high profile leadership.” The Tennessean of the Year award was first awarded by the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame in 1982. The award is not bestowed each year; only when people are deemed worthy.

FRANCHISE LEGENDS LOCKED IN

Steve McNair’s No. 9 and Eddie George’s No. 27 jerseys retired during special ceremony at Nissan Stadium EDDIE GEORGE AND STEVE M c NAIR.

Think of the Tennessee Titans, and two of their alltime greats come to mind because of their success on the field, their toughness and grit – and the impact they’ve made in the city of Nashville and beyond. Now, the Tennessee legends have been locked in by the team -- and ownership -- by having their jersey numbers 9 and 27 retired. McNair’s No. 9 jersey and George’s No. 27 jersey were retired in a special ceremony during the team’s home opener against the Indianapolis Colts. Former teammates served as the Honorary 12th Titans for the game, while Taj George, Eddie’s wife, performed the National Anthem prior to the game. Fred McNair, Steve’s brother, spoke on behalf of the Titans’ legendary quarterback. Titans owner Amy Adams Strunk offered her gratitude to the pair of Titans legends. “Steve and Eddie will be forever linked as two of the driving forces for our team in the late 90’s and early 2000’s,” Strunk said. “They were the heart and soul of the team and each made the other a better player and 58

ultimately led to a great deal of team success. Their statistics will forever live in our record books, but their play and sacrifice is what our fans will always remember. For that and all that they have done for our team, the number 9 and 27 will be retired with the all-time franchise greats.” In the history of the Oilers/Titans franchise, only six players have had the distinction of having their jersey number retired – Jim Norton (No.43), Elvin Bethea (No.65), Earl Campbell (No.34), Mike Munchak (No.63) Bruce Matthews (No.74) and Warren Moon (No.1). During the NFL Draft, George wore McNair’s No.9 to honor him. This past September, they were honored together. “To have it retired with my partner in crime, Steve McNair, it means a lot,” George said. “We were always linked at the hip during our playing careers. We’ve been through a lot of wars together both on and off the football field. To go down this day, to have our jerseys retired on the same day is huge for us. “It has to be with Steve. 2 plus 7 equals 9. … It is totally appropriate to see us go in together.” During the duo’s time together (1996–2003), the

TENNESSEE TITANS GAMEDAY

McNair George.indd 58

10/25/19 4:50 PM

During the duo’s time together (1996–2003), the team’s 80-48 record (.625) ranked third in the NFL behind only the Green Bay Packers’ 88-40 record (.688) and the Denver Broncos’ 83-45 (.648) mark. Together they experienced four total playoff appearances (1999, 2000, 2002 and 2003), two division titles (2000 and 2002), two AFC Championship games (1999 and 2002) and an appearance in Super Bowl XXXIV. McNair was the third overall draft pick in 1995 by the Houston Oilers, and he made the No.9 a special one during his career. McNair played from 1995-2005 with the Oilers/Titans before playing his final two NFL seasons (2006-2007) with the Baltimore Ravens. In 11 seasons with the Titans, McNair set team records and accumulated the most wins of any quarterback in Titans/Oilers history. McNair, who led Tennessee’s famous drive that ended up a yard short of forcing overtime in Super Bowl XXXIV, also made a big impact in the Nashville community through the Steve McNair Foundation. He was selected as the 2005 Titans Walter Payton Award Winner, given to the team’s Community Man of the Year. He was a four-time Pro Bowler, and he was co-MVP of the NFL with Colts quarterback Peyton Manning in 2003. McNair finished his career with 31,304 yards passing and 174 touchdowns. As a member of the Titans, he was credited with 20 game-winning drives in the regular season and postseason, finishing second all-time behind Moon (23). McNair was tragically killed in Nashville on July 4, 2009, but his memory remains alive around the team, and in the city. “Retiring his jersey is a really big deal for us,” Mechelle McNair said in a statement. It is a tangible reminder for me and the boys to know that No.9 will forever be held in the highest regard in the Titans nation.” A first-round pick by the Titans in 1996, George made the No. 27 legendary in Tennessee.

George is the Titans/Oilers record holder for career rushing yards (10,009), ahead of Hall of Famer Earl Campbell (9,407). He finished his career with 10,441 yards. George is the only running back in NFL history to record 300 or more carries for eight consecutive seasons. He is the organization’s all-time scrimmage yards leader (12,153). During his playing days in Tennessee (1996-2003), George never missed a game – a span of 128 starts. He was a 1,000-yard rusher seven times, and a four-time Pro Bowler. George racked up 36 100yard games, and the Titans recorded a 30-6 record in those games. George’s finest season came in 2000, when he rushed for 1,509 yards, scored 16 total touchdowns, and six 100-yard performances for the 13-3 Titans. Playing alongside McNair, George helped the Titans reach the playoffs four times in his eight years in Nashville, including a Super Bowl, and two AFC title games. George went over 1,300 yards in a season four times, and he racked up 12,668 all-purpose yards in his career. George averaged 1,160 rushing yards per season during his nineyear NFL career. Among all players who have played six seasons, only six averaged more rushing yards per season: Barry Sanders (1,527), Jim Brown (1,368), Payton (1,287), Martin (1,282), LaDainian Tomlinson (1,244) and Emmitt Smith (1,224). George, Tomlinson and Eric Dickerson are the only three NFL running backs to rush for 1,200 or more yards in each of their first five NFL seasons. Earlier, McNair and George were inducted into the Titans/Oilers Hall of Fame. “This is a big moment for me personally because I love these guys, and I know my dad loved these guys, and he will be so happy and proud,” Strunk said. “This is the highest honor that we can bestow on a Titans player, and both of them are deserving for their significant contributions to our franchise. Steve and Eddie’s accomplishments are on par with the NFL’s best players in history, and amongst the greatest of all Titans.” TENNESSEE TITANS GAMEDAY

INSPIRING YOUTH Former Titans RB Eddie George, Titans and Campbell’s give back to East Nashville Magnet High School FORMER TITANS RB Eddie George and the Titans partnered with Campbell’s Chunky Soup to donate helmets, shoulder pads, Titans tickets and a check for $10,000 to East Nashville Magnet High School. George surprised he team before their practice with the gifts and invited them to attend the Titans-Colts game for his jersey retirement ceremony. The entire team received game tickets, pregame field access, and enjoyed a pregame tailgate with Titans alumni players. George left the team with this inspirational message. “Think beyond the game,” George told the players. “Your plan A is to play ball and get a great education. Then think how you want to be like Jay-Z and have ownership in companies, ownership in your communities. The only way that happens is by putting yourself in an environment of education. Take care of your books.” 60

BUILDING LIVES

Titans partner with Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project and Habitat for Humanity of Greater Nashville to help build affordable homes for low income families THE TENNESSEE TITANS were excited to partner with the Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project and Habitat for Humanity of Greater Nashville earlier this month to help build affordable homes for low income families. The project was the cornerstone of the Titans’ NFL Huddle for 100 campaign, which celebrates the league’s 100th season and encourages fans to be active in causes that are important to them in the community. “Being in Nashville and understanding that affordable housing is a big issue that we’re having right now, it was important for the Tennessee Titans to lend their hand in making these opportunities available to those in need,” said Titans Senior Director of Community Relations Tina Tuggle. “We thought this was a great opportunity to jump on board and help our community with something it’s so deserving of.” Nashville was chosen as the host city for the historic occasion, joining Garth Brooks, Trisha Yearwood and hundreds of volunteers Oct. 6-11 to build 20 new homes in partnership with families in the north Nashville neighborhood of Park Preserve, a 42-acre Habitat developed neighborhood with 93 homes that will have 64

175 homes when it is complete. An additional 12 new single-family homes and 26 new townhomes will be constructed by 2021 with support of funding raised for the project for a total of 58 families served. Affordable housing is an urgent topic in Nashville. According to the latest Housing Report from the Davidson County Mayor’s office, more than 200,000 people living in Nashville cannot afford the cost of housing. Nashville has lost over 20 percent of its affordable housing since 2000. By 2026, it is projected that Nashville will need an additional 30,000 affordable housing units. The Carter Work Project will increase Habitat of Greater Nashville’s capacity to make a significant impact on affordable housing for years to come. Since 1984, President and Mrs. Carter have been champions and strong voices for affordable housing, donating their time and leadership each year to build and improve homes around the world with Habitat for Humanity. Inspiring millions, more than 100,000 volunteers have worked with the Carters in 14 countries to improve access to affordable housing. The Titans were thrilled to join Habitat of Greater Nashville and the city of Nashville to be a part of this.

SCHOOL VISITS

Titans Making Impact on Elementary and Middle School Students THE TITANS SCHOOL PROGRAM — implemented at both the middle and elementary school level — is focused on promoting the NFL’s PLAY 60 and Fuel Up to PLAY 60 campaign. During an assembly, Titans players share their personal story and the importance of making good choices, staying focused, making homework a priority before outside activities, staying in school, and listening to their parents and teachers. The players also stress the importance of healthy eating and leading an active lifestyle. Following the assembly, select students — nominated by their schools for leadership, grades and behavior — are invited to a special meet-and-greet opportunity. Tennessee State Parks began a partnership with the Titans school program in spring 2012 and has added further educational elements to the program that include displaying of bald eagles, red-tailed hawks, owls and other animals in the care of Tennessee State Park rangers. There are 54 state parks across Tennessee and any one of them is a great place to be active. Additional partners of the Titans school program include the State of Tennessee Department of Health, the American Heart Association and the Southeast United Dairy Industry Association. 66

Titans Spread Cheer, Visit Saint Thomas Health Patients THE TITANS HOSPITAL PROGRAM is a long-standing tradition the team implemented in 1999 where players visit with Saint Thomas Health patients who are receiving care ranging from joint replacement to minimally invasive surgical procedures including heart transplants to families who are welcoming a newborn babies. Visits include the hospitals located in Davidson and Rutherford counties, where many patients are season ticket holders, making the moments even more special.Â Players also visit a 40-bed JCAHO-accredited nursing home in Hickman County, where senior adults receive extended care. Saint Thomas Health is a family of Tennessee hospitals and physician practices united by a single mission: to provide spiritually centered, holistic care that sustains and improves the health of the communities they serve.Â As a part of Ascension Health, the largest not-for-profit health care system in the United States, they are committed to healing and dedicated to service, especially to persons who are poor or needy, reflecting the spiritual core of their mission, vision and values. 68

NFL DRAFT A SMASHING SUCCESS IN NASHVILLE Sets Record with 600,000 Fans in Attendance, 47.5 Million Viewers WHEN THE 2019 NFL DRAFT was awarded to Nashville, it was expected to be a success in Music City. But no one could have predicted the record-setting week that was to come. The Draft easily shattered records for attendance, as over 600,000 fans filled the streets of Nashville for the three-day event. The NFL and the Nashville Convention & Visitors Corp announced it generated a record $133 million in direct spending -- a 79 percent increase over the $74 million at the 2018 Dallas event. The economic impact was another record-breaker at $224 million, also a 79 percent increase over the $125 million in 2018. In April, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell praised Titans owner Amy Adams Strunk for her role in bringing the 2019 NFL Draft to the city. “While I am proud to have been involved, the people of Tennessee were the true stars of the show and I want to thank every single person who touched the event,” Strunk said. “They say it takes a village, but this event, it took an amazing city and a great state to come together and throw one of the biggest parties in NFL history.” With a combined 3.9 HH TV rating and average of 6.1M TV and digital viewers, the 2019 NFL Draft was 74

the highest-rated and most-watched Draft ever, breaking records established just a year ago. In total, all NFL Draft telecasts combined to reach more than 47.5 million television viewers over the three-day event, up 5 percent vs. 2018. Many of those in Nashville not attending the NFL Draft in-person were watching from home, as the market combined for a 10.6 HH rating – up 104 percent versus Nashville last year, and up 74 percent versus the 2018 host city. “The 2019 NFL Draft was a tremendous continuation of the celebration of the NFL’s 100th season and an opportunity to welcome the next generation of stars,” said NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. “Dramatic and emotional storylines played out in cities across the country with the energetic host city of Nashville serving as a breathtaking backdrop to hundreds of thousands of passionate fans who lined the streets and enjoyed a unique NFL Draft Experience. We congratulate our newest players and their families and thank the Tennessee Titans, the Nashville Convention and Visitors Corp., the City of Nashville, the volunteers, and everyone who made the Draft such a memorable, entertaining, and successful experience.”

NISSAN STADIUM

Home of the Titans Since Inaugural 1999 Season ON JUNE 25, 2015, the Titans and Nissan North America announced the formation of a 20-year, exclusive naming-rights partnership that rebranded Nashville’s downtown stadium as Nissan Stadium. Nissan Stadium hosts all Titans home football games, Tennessee State University home football games, the Music City Bowl, international soccer games, concerts, the CMA Music Festival and numerous other events. The procurement of naming rights to Nissan Stadium fit the automotive company’s ‘Fewer, Bigger, Better’ marketing strategy, which has included ongoing sponsorships of NBC’s The Voice, the Heisman House college football program and a major advertising presence at the Super Bowl. Nissan is also known as the official automotive partner of the Tennessee Titans. Nissan’s ever-growing footprint in Tennessee includes vehicle and powertrain manufacturing facilities in Smyrna and Decherd respectively, along with its North American headquarters in Franklin. The Nissan Smyrna plant began operations in 1983 and employs more than 8,400 people. In 2014, the Smyrna plant assembled more than 648,000 vehicles, making it the highest volume automotive assem-

Nissan Stadium.indd 96

bly plant in North America. Nissan also has a major manufacturing presence in Canton, Miss., along with research and development groups in California, Arizona and Michigan. In total, the company employs more than 22,000 employees in the U.S. An important component of the Titans-Nissan partnership is assisting charitable organizations throughout Middle Tennessee in an array of community outreach programs. A centerpiece of this is the annual “Taste of Titans” charitable event, for which Nissan serves as presenting sponsor and which this year benefited the ALS Association, Tennessee Chapter. During the course of a 20-year relationship, a total of more than $1 million resulting from these annual events is anticipated to be distributed to local nonprofit organizations. Nissan Stadium is a city-owned venue that has housed the Titans since 1999. The naming rights agreement included the opportunity for Nissan branding on the exterior of the stadium, as well as stadium signage and other unique displays inside the stadium. LP Building Products previously held the naming rights to the stadium since 2006.

SAINT THOMAS SPORTS PARK Team Headquarters and Practice Facility of the Tennessee Titans

ON MAY 15, 1998, the team selected a 31-acre site at the MetroCenter complex in Nashville as the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s permanent practice location. Since that time, a beautiful multimillion-dollar facility has been built by Nashville- based Powell Building Group on the property, located just north of downtown Nashville about five miles from Nissan Stadium. The team moved into the facility on Aug. 26, 1999, the day after training camp completed and the day before the first preseason game at Nissan Stadium. The 80,000-square-foot building contains a state-of-the-art locker room, weight rooms, a training room, cafeteria, broadcast studio, meeting rooms and offices for coaches, players and administrative staff. The building also features an auditorium with seating for 125 people, as well as other meeting rooms. Designed to exceed the standards of all previous training and practice facilities, the weight training center and rehabilitation treatment facility sets the model for all professional sports. The facility boasts three outdoor practice fields with natural grass, plus an enclosed field. Logistically, each field is identical to the playing surface at Nissan Stadium, from the 100-yard length to the geographic orientation. The longitudinal center of 98

each field is 24 degrees west of north, just like the field at Nissan Stadium, enabling the Titans to practice in the same slanting sunlight they face on Sundays. Powell, a leading builder in Middle Tennessee, was chosen for its state-of-the-art construction planning and building techniques. The facility occupies a beautiful site chosen from over 60 reviewed locations; a lakefront peninsula across from the Fountain Square commercial development located within a few miles from downtown Nashville.
