The record
The Tennessee Titans were founded by K.S. 'Bud' Adams Jr., who also helped found the American Football League. His daughter, Amy Adams Strunk, became controlling owner in March 2015 and is co-chairman of the board. The team credits her tenure with six straight winning seasons from 2016 to 2021, an AFC Championship Game trip in 2019 and division titles in 2020 and 2021.
The biggest public deal on the team's record is its new stadium. After a term sheet with the city in October 2022, the Metro Nashville Council gave final approval on April 26, 2023, by a 26-12 vote. The budget is $2.1 billion: $840 million plus any overruns from the Titans, $500 million from the state, and $760 million in Sports Authority revenue bonds repaid partly through a higher hotel occupancy tax. Ground was broken on February 29, 2024, with opening set for 2027.
The sideline has turned over quickly since. The Titans fired Mike Vrabel on January 9, 2024, after six seasons and a 56-48 record, then fired his successor Brian Callahan on October 13, 2025, with the team 1-5 after a 3-14 season. Robert Saleh was hired as the franchise's 22nd head coach on January 22, 2026, with Mike Borgonzi as general manager.
