Titans Ready to Rumble w/ Jets at the Meadowlands

The Tennessee Titans (0-2) play the first of two consecutive road games this week, traveling to New York to face the Jets (2-0) in an “American Football League Legacy Game.” Kickoff at the Meadowlands (capacity 80,062) is scheduled for noon CDT on Sunday, Sept. 27. The public is reminded that the kickoff time was changed shortly after the schedule’s initial release in April.

To celebrate the 50th season since the AFL was formed, select Legacy Games in 2009 will feature teams wearing throwback uniforms. The Titans will don a version of their 1960 AFL Championship team uniforms in three regular season games, including this week at New York. The Jets, like the Titans, were charter members of the AFL in 1960. From the league’s founding through the 1962 season, they played as the New York Titans before being renamed the Jets for the 1963 season.

The game will be televised regionally on CBS, including Nashville affiliate WTVF NewsChannel 5. Greg Gumbel will handle play-by-play duties, while Dan Dierdorf will provide color commentary. The Titans Radio Network, including Nashville flagship 103.3-WKDF, will broadcast the game across the Mid-South with the “Voice of the Titans” Mike Keith, color commentator Frank Wycheck, sideline reporter Cody Allison and gameday host Larry Stone.
