NASHVILLE — When the Tennessee Titans take the field to kick off the 2024 regular season, things will look much different than they did in 2023.
There will be a new head coach walking the sidelines in Brian Callahan. There will be a Titans roster that has undergone a lot of turnover. There might also be an unfamiliar jersey number in the backfield…And not just because Derrick Henry may not be wearing the two-tone blue.
Titans running back Tyjae Spears, who sported jersey number 32 for his rookie season, told me in a recent interview that he’s considering changing his jersey number for the 2024 season.
During an interview with Spears earlier this week for “Titans at 2” with A to Z Sports representing Panini America at the Super Bowl, I asked the Titans’ young running back about the possibility of switching his number to 22 if it’s available this season.
After all, 22 is Spears’ favorite number. It’s the number he wore in high school and in college at Tulane. His father’s birthday is February 22nd.
