Between the pouring rain, cold temperatures, and final score, Sunday’s game at Nissan Stadium might be one some people would like to forget.
However, that’s not the case for everyone who attended.
“I’m feeling very excited, I’m feeling good,” said Myles Gooch, a construction worker who’s helping build the new Nissan Stadium.
Gooch isn’t on the Titans, but he stepped on the field Sunday to help showcase the work he and others are doing to build the new stadium.
“I’m a general laborer, so I’m basically keeping the job site clean, keeping the safety maintained, updating handrails, things of that nature,” Gooch said.
Gooch is a graduate of the Titans Construction Training Camp.
“We teach individuals everything from the basics of construction to safety standards to learning about different careers,” said Johari Matthews, Vice President and Executive Director of One Community and the Tennessee Titans Foundation.
Around the time Gooch was part of the six-week camp, tragedy stuck his life outside the classroom.
