NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — New Tennessee coach Mike Munchak wanted to treat Titans’ fans with a night practice hoping to get out of the heat a bit.

The weather didn’t cooperate, not that the fans nor the players minded.

About 1,200 fans turned out Sunday night to watch the new coach put the Titans through their first open practice, and Munchak welcomed them by grabbing a microphone early. The Titans wrapped the session with all the players heading to the fence to sign autographs on a sticky, humid night.

Defensive lineman Jason Jones says it was cool seeing fans again after being asked by people the past few months about when they would play football again.
