| Rookie LB Rennie Curran hosted a special holiday celebration for children from the Andrew Jackson Boys and Girls Club. |
Curran sponsored the holiday event that included festive activities, face painting, music, inflatables and a gift exchange for approximately 100 youth at the center.
"I am grateful for the position that I am in professionally and want to give back a portion of what has been given to me," said Curran, a third-round draft pick out of Georgia. "Every day I get a chance to live out my dreams and want to inspire the children in the community that they can do the same."

As autographs, photos and goodies were exchanged, Curran got his face painted with a festive holiday candy cane as youngsters watched. It was Curran's first Christmas charity event to host as an NFL player that brightened the holiday season for many deserving youngsters in the Nashville community.
