211020-quick-hits

NASHVILLE – The Titans returned to the practice field for a walk-through on Wednesday at Saint Thomas Sports Park to begin preparations for Sunday's game vs the Kansas City Chiefs at Nissan Stadium.

Some quick hits from the Titans on Wednesday:

-Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill has teamed up with Mars Petcare to encourage pet adoption that will coincide with this weekend's game. Mars Petcare announced they would cover $100K in adoption fees at local shelters in both cities this weekend (October 22 –24) to help deserving pets find loving homes.

This year marks the 13th annual Adoption Weekend which is part of Mars Petcare's Better Cities for Pets program.

On Wednesday, all the Titans who conducted interviews wore t-shirts with dogs available for adoption on them, including Tannehill.

"The Titans are part of the adoption week with Mars Petcare," Tannehill said. "Their foundation is giving $100,000 to adoption fees across this weekend both here and in Kansas City. If you are looking for a dog or looking for a cat and want to add a family member to your family, check out one of the shelters here in town and find yourself a new pet. There is actually a website if you want to find out the shelters and the actual dates and everything, I think it is October 22 through October 24. You can (CLICK HERE), they will have more information there."

"I am a dog person, I love dogs, have always had dogs. I have actually had a dog ever since I was a little kid. I can remember going to a shelter when I was five or six years old and picking out our family pet, Freckles. We had him for about 13 years, I think. He was a great dog and part of why I feel great about support pet adoption."
