FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE SEPTEMBER 1, 2014 NASHVILLE — The Tennessee Titans (0-0) begin the 2014 regular season this week with a trip to face the Kansas City Chiefs (0-0). Kickoff at Arrowhead Stadium (capacity 76,416) is scheduled for noon CDT on Sunday, Sept. 7. THE BROADCAST This week’s game will be televised regionally on CBS, including Nashville affiliate WTVF News- Channel 5. Kevin Harlan will handle play-by-play duties, and Rich Gannon will serve as analyst. The Titans Radio Network, including Nashville flagship 104.5 The Zone, will broadcast the game across the Mid-South with the “Voice of the Titans” Mike Keith, analyst Frank Wycheck, gameday host Rhett Bryan and sideline reporter Jonathan Hutton. TITANS LAUNCH FIRST SEASON WITH WHISENHUNT The Titans turn their attention to the regular season after finishing the preseason with a 2-2 record. In last week’s preseason finale at LP Field, they suffered a 19-3 loss at the hands of the Min- nesota Vikings. Titans quarterback Jake Locker was held out of the Minnesota game, along with the rest of the starters on both sides of the ball. In three preseason starts, Locker completed 21 of 30 passes for 268 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions. The fourth-year signal caller produced a preseason passer rating of 119.9, ranking second in the AFC and fourth in the NFL. Locker helped the Titans offense as a whole rank highly in several categories during the pre- season. The unit was seventh overall (349.0 yards per game), eighth in passing (236.3), third in yards per play (5.9), eighth in rushing average (4.3) and tied for second in efficiency inside the opponents’ 20 (75 percent touchdowns). For the first time, the Titans are led into the regular season by Ken Whisenhunt, who became the 17th head coach in franchise history and the third in the “Titans era” on Jan. 13. He owns 17 previous years of NFL experience as a coach and nine seasons as a player. In 2013, Whisenhunt was named Assistant Coach of the Year by the Professional Football Writ- ers of America after a successful one-year stint as offensive coordinator for the San Diego Chargers. Under his direction, the Chargers had the NFL’s fifth-ranked offense (393.3 yards per game) and the league’s top offense on third down (49.0 percent). Philip Rivers’ 105.5 passer rating matched the highest rating of his career and placed fourth among NFL signal callers. Whisenhunt’s first stint as a head coach was with the Arizona Cardinals from 2007 through 2012. He won a franchise-record 49 games, leading the club to a pair of NFC West titles and its first NFC Championship. THE CHIEFS The Chiefs are entering their second campaign under the direction of Andy Reid, who was named the franchise’s head coach in 2013 after spending 14 years as head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles. In his first season in Kansas City, Reid helped the Chiefs produce an 11-5 record and earn a Wild Card playoff berth. However, in the opening round of the playoffs, they fell to the Indianapolis Colts by a score of 45-44. No NFL team in 2013 produced more Pro Bowl players than the Chiefs. Ten Chiefs received the honor, and seven of those remain with the club in 2014: safety Eric Berry, running back Jamaal Charles, inside linebacker Derrick Johnson, defensive tackle Dontari Poe, quarterback Alex Smith, and outside linebackers Tamba Hali and Justin Houston. One of last year’s Pro Bowl selections, punt returner Dexter McCluster, signed with the Titans during the offseason. Charles totaled 1,980 yards from scrimmage (1,287 rushing and 693 receiving) in 2013 to rank first in the AFC and second in the NFL. His 19 combined touchdowns (12 rushing, seven receiving) led the NFL. Smith joined the Chiefs in a trade from the San Francisco 49ers in 2013. He passed for 3,313 yards as his team reached the playoffs for the third consecutive season (2011 and 2012 with the 49ers). PRESEASON Result/ Score/ Day Date Opponent Kickoff TV Sat.

Ruston Webster is in his third year as execu-tive vice president/general manager in 2014 after serving two seasons as Titans vice president of player personnel. He was elevated to his current position on Jan. 18, 2012. Prior to the start of the 2014 League Year,Websterstrucknewdealswithapairofkeystart-ers with expiring contracts: safety Bernard Pollard and defensive end Ropati Pitoitua. Then, he went to work to sign an incoming classof freeagents tofillkey roleson the roster.Among the signees were running back Dexter McCluster (formerly with with Kansas City Chiefs), tackle Michael Oher (Baltimore Ravens), outside linebacker Shaun Phillips (Denver Broncos), quarterback Charlie White-hurst (San Diego Chargers), defensive lineman Al Woods (Pittsburgh Steelers) and linebacker Wesley Woodyard (Broncos). Withthe11thoverallpickinthe2014NFLDraft,WebsterledtheTitans’selection of tackle Taylor Lewan, a 6-foot-7 Associated Press All-American and four-year starter at Michigan. Lewan headlined a six-member draft classthatalsoincludedWashingtonrunningbackBishop Sankey (second round), Penn State defensive lineman DaQuan Jones(fourthround),Wyo-ming defensive back Marqueston Huff (fourth round), Kentucky linebacker Avery Williamson (fifth round) and Louisiana State quarterback Zach Mettenberger (sixth round). During the 2013 offseason,Webster engineered dealswith 17 freeagents. Out of that group, Pollard and left guard Andy Levitre started all 16 games, and Pollard led the defense with a career-high 142 tackles. Pitoitua (16games,13starts)anddefensivelinemanSammie Hill(13games,10starts) were key members of the defensive line rotation, while Moise Fokou (12 starts) was the defensive signal caller for most of the season at middle linebacker. Tight end Delanie Walker (15 games, 11 starts) totaled 60 re-ceptions for 571 yards and six touchdowns, setting career highs in all three categories. Walker became the only tight end in franchise history otherthan Frank Wycheck to reach 60 receptions in a single season, and his six touchdown receptions tied for fourth place in franchise history among tight endsandwerethemostsinceWycheck’ssixin1996.QuarterbackRyan Fitzpatrick, who was signed to back up Jake Locker, started nine times and passed for 2,454 yards.

TITANS/OILERS HEAD COACH HISTORY

General manager Ruston Webster (Jan.13,2014):“Ihavealotofrespectfor Ken as a coach and as an offensive mind. The traits that stand out to mewhenidentifyinghimasournextcoach–heisintelligent,hasatrackrecord with quality offenses and head coaching success. I really enjoyed our meeting on Friday night in San Diego and we share similar philosophies about the game. Additionally, we have several mutual colleagues that have spoken highly to me about Ken both as a coach and as a person. I am ex-cited about Ken joining us and the future of the Titans.”

Former Cardinals QB Kurt Warner (Jan. 14, 2014): “I thought he did a greatjobwithusatArizona.Hebroughthonesty,integrityandconsistencyin his approach. It was enormous for us because we hadn’t won. He con-vinced us that we could win, that he had a plan and it will work. His biggest challenge was to convince us that we could do it. I consider him a players’ coach and I say that in a good way. He listens to players and takes their input. Now he may not always do what the players want if he doesn’t believe in it, but he has an open door. He also had a good pulse on the team and what we needed. His style also gave us ownership in the process, knowing that our voice could be heard, which was huge for us. It also helped the leaders on the team solidify those roles knowing we could have an impact with the coach. It helped the leaders be leaders. Offensively, what I loved about himwashis flexibility.Whenhegot toArizona, his background inPittsburgh was mostly two back/two tight end offense. But that wasn’t how wewerebuilt inArizona.HewasflexibletoideasandlearnedhowIsawthegameandfittheoffensetowhatwehad.Wewereabletodevelopanoffense that was one of the best in the NFL and that input from those in the offensegavethemanownershipandbuy-inthathelpedusaswell.YousawthatinSanDiegotoo.Hewasmultipleinwhathedidthereandwasflexibleto cater to what they had on the roster. I think he has grown a great deal in thelastfiveorsixyearsinhisoffensiveapproachandyouseethesuccesshe has had. I appreciate his consistency, especially when you see coaches change because of success or struggles. He is a man of integrity and never wavered from that. He says what he is going to do and follows through on that. As players, sometimes you might not agree with it, but you know where he stands and you can battle for guys like that.”

Former Steelers Head Coach/Current NFL on CBS Analyst Bill Cowher (Jan. 14, 2014): “He spent time with us (at the Steelers) as both a tight ends coach and offensive coordinator and he works great with players. He played the game and he was respected by the players for his knowledge. He also was innovative and creative but always sound in what he did. He would put players in a position to be successful and get the most out of them. It is important in the NFL to be able to create those situations for success, be-cause the challenges change on a weekly basis. I think it is a great hire by Tennessee.YoulookatwhathedidinArizonaandwhenhehadstabilityatthe quarterback position, he was very good. He will get the most out of the talent that they have there. I wish him nothing but the best.”

Former Steelers RB Jerome Bettis (Jan. 14, 2014): “First and foremost, Kenbelievesinold-fashionfootball.Whenyoulookattheplayoffsthisyearand you see the teams that are having success, they have the ability to run the football. The running game wins games and wins championships. Ken understands this. He also believes that a strong defense is a critical compo-nent to any championship team, it isn’t just about the offense. I believe he is a great hire. He is going to breathe life back into the running game, whether CJisthereornot,becausehewillfindawaytorunit.Thatfranchisehasaproud history of running the football and being in the playoffs and Ken will bring those things back to Nashville.”
