The Titans High School Coach of the Week presented by Whataburger is designed to recognize high school football coaches who continuously demonstrate dedication to their football programs, by building successful football teams both on and off the field.

Each week during the season, the Titans will select a High School Coach of the Week presented by Whataburger. The award aims to recognize a Tennessee high school football coach for an outstanding performance on Friday night and exceptional program leadership throughout the year.

The Tennessee Titans Fireball Fridays Game of the Week presented by Whataburger is designed to recognize excellence in high school athletics.

 Each week throughout the season, we'll feature some of the top high school football matchups around Middle Tennessee and nominate them to be the Fireball Fridays Game of the Week presented by Whataburger. We'll select four games across the area and let the fans decide by voting where we'll head on Friday night. Fans are encouraged to vote for their preferred matchup throughout the week and the game with the most votes, will be selected as the Fireball Fridays Game of the Week presented by Whataburger. 

Along with some very special guests, the Titans will travel to the host school on Friday night to engage with fans, bring some Titans swag, and give attendees the chance to win an autographed item from one of your favorite Titans players.
