List of Tennessee Titans seasons
Wikimedia list article
The Tennessee Titans are a professional American football team based in Nashville, Tennessee. They compete in the AFC South division of the American Football Conference (AFC) in the National Football League (NFL). The team was originally established as the Houston Oilers in 1959 by businessman Bud Adams, and began play in 1960 as a charter member of the American Football League (AFL). The Oilers were successful in the early years of the AFL, winning the league's first two championships in 1960 and 1961.
Following the AFL–NFL merger in 1970, the Oilers became part of the NFL's AFC Central division. In 1997, Adams relocated the franchise from Houston to Tennessee, where it played its inaugural season as the Tennessee Oilers at the Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium in Memphis. The team relocated to Vanderbilt Stadium in Nashville in 1998. The following year, it was rebranded as the Tennessee Titans to coincide with the opening of its new current home stadium, originally named Adelphia Coliseum, now known as Nissan Stadium. The Titans made an immediate impact under their new identity, reaching Super Bowl XXXIV in their first season with the new name, narrowly losing to the St. Louis Rams.

Why this record matters

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 22, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q6599283. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1959, 1960, 1961 and 1970.
