Players scheduled to appear on this year’s Caravan include outside linebacker Derrick Morgan and tight end Delanie Walker (May 2nd); nose tackle Sammie Hill, tackle Taylor Lewan and safety Da’Norris Searcy (May 4th); safety Michael Griffin, cornerback Jason McCourty and outside linebacker Brian Orakpo (May 5th); defensive tackle Jurrell Casey, wide receivers Harry Douglas and Justin Hunter (May 6th); running backs Dexter McCluster and Bishop Sankey and linebacker Avery Williamson (May 7th); and defensive lineman Karl Klug and guard Chance Warmack (May 8th-9th).

This year, there will be two special non-public stops. The Caravan kicks off with a unique visit to the Tennessee Army and Air National Guard headquarters on May 2nd. The Titans are throwing private Day 3 Draft party for the military personnel at the base and Morgan and Walker will join other Titans players to sign autographs for the soldiers in attendance.

Titans Caravan will then make a special visit on Tuesday, May 5th with soldiers and family members of the 101st Airborne Division of the US Army at Fort Campbell, KY. Griffin, McCourty, Orakpo, T-Rac, Titans cheerleaders and staff will be part of the stop, as they take the opportunity to thank our troops and their families for the great sacrifice that they make for all of us.

There will be one additional stop on the Caravan of a unique nature: an appearance in Paducah, KY, on June 13th in connection with the George Wilson S.A.F.E.T.Y. Foundation’s Annual Football and Cheer Camp. Titans players and cheerleaders will take part in the camp which will be held at Paducah Tilghman High School from 9:00am – 1:00pm.

Titans Caravan began in 1998 as a small effort to spread goodwill through the region. Today, nine full-time staffers travel with Titans players and T-Rac through the Mid-South on a specially-decorated motor coach. Since 1998, the Caravan has made over 800 stops and allowed the team to interact directly with an estimated audience well in excess of 200,000 fans.
