History
On September 12, 1999, the Tennessee Titans
moved into their new stadium. The stadium was originally known as
Adelphia Coliseum after Adelphia Communications paid $30 million
for the naming rights for 15 years. However, prior to the start of
the 2002 NFL season, the naming rights were dropped and the
stadium was known as The Coliseum for four seasons. The stadium
was renamed LP Field in June 2006, when the Louisiana-Pacific
Corporation purchased the naming rights for $3 million/year for 10
years. LP Field consists of three levels of 68,000 blue and red
seats. The lower grandstand circles the entire gridiron. Two other
decks of seating are located on both sides of the field. Two
scoreboard/video-boards are located behind the seating area past
the endzones. LP Field contains 144 luxury suites, and 9,600 club
seats (which make up the second tier of the grandstand). The
stadium is also the home of the Tennessee State Tigers and hosts
the annual Music City Bowl. Fans attending games at LP Field
receive excellent views of the nearby Nashville skyline and the
Cumberland River.
Located in the Music City, the Tennessee Titans play in one of the
NFL’s best stadiums. However, the team has not always played in
the best stadiums prior to moving into The Coliseum. After 30
years of playing in Houston, TX at the Astrodome, the team, then
known as the Houston Oilers, wanted a new football only stadium in
the mid 1990’s. After numerous attempts to get a stadium failed,
the team decided to move to Nashville, TN. There was one problem,
Nashville did not have a stadium ready for the team by the time
they moved in 1996. While a new stadium was being constructed in
Nashville, the Titans played at the Liberty Bowl and Vanderbilt
Stadium.

defensive end had the second-fastest 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine, with a
time of 4.68 seconds.

| Titans agree to term with WR
Filani |
|
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- The Tennessee Titans agreed to terms with rookie wide
receiver Joel Filani on a contract Thursday.
Filani, a sixth-round draft pick out of Texas Tech, was eighth in career
receptions, sixth in yardage, and second in touchdown receptions. As a senior,
he had 91 receptions for a school-record 1,300 yards and tied the school mark
with 13 touchdowns.
He caught nine passes for 144 yards, including a 43-yard touchdown catch,
that sparked Tech's record 44-41 comeback win over Minnesota in last season's
Insight Bowl.
The Titans have agreed to terms with six of their 10 draft picks.
