On Tuesday, Oct. 6, Titans defensive ends Jermaine Johnson II, Truman Jones, and Jacob Martin visited Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt as part of the NFL and Titans’ Crucial Catch initiative. Players spent the afternoon with patients and their families, coloring, talking about sports, and cheering on a 16-year-old as she rang the bell, marking a significant treatment milestone.
The Titans kicked off Crucial Catch week on Monday, Oct. 5, when they hosted patients and their families from the Monroe Carell Junior Ambassador Program for a Crucial Catch Family Fun Night at PopStroke. The Titans will continue their Crucial Catch activations throughout the week, volunteering at Hope Lodge and hosting a Pink Lemonade Stand prior to Sunday’s game. All proceeds will benefit the Vanderbilt Breast Center.
Every Tuesday, Titans players use their day off to give back to communities throughout Middle Tennessee as part of the Titans’ Community Tuesday initiative.
