NASHVILLE, TN, April 3, 2008 –** The National Football League announced the Titans' preseason schedule this afternoon. The Titans will host the
St. Louis Rams and Oakland Raiders at LP Field and travel to face the
Atlanta Falcons and
Green Bay Packers.
The Titans open the preseason at home against St. Louis (weekend of Aug. 8-10). The following week against Oakland will be nationally televised on FOX on Saturday, Aug. 16 at 7 p.m. (central). The two road games will come against Atlanta (weekend of Aug. 21-24) and Green Bay (weekend of Aug. 28-30) with final dates and times to be announced over the next month.
The opener against St. Louis will mark the return of wide receiver Drew Bennett, who played his first six NFL seasons in Tennessee, and guard Jacob Bell, who signed with the Rams as an unrestricted free agent during the off-season.
