The Tennessee Titans are gearing up for their final preseason game against the New Orleans Saints this week. The game will take place at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans on Sunday, August 25th at 1 p.m. CDT. This matchup comes less than a year after the Titans‘ last visit to New Orleans, where they fell to the Saints in a close game with a final score of 16-15. Despite this loss, the Titans still hold a winning record in the all-time series against the Saints, with a 9-7-1 advantage.
The game will be televised regionally on the Titans Preseason TV Network, with play-by-play announcer Paul Burmeister and analyst Charles Davis calling the action.

In their last preseason game, the Titans secured a thrilling 16-15 victory against the Seattle Seahawks at Nissan Stadium. Kicker Brayden Narveson played a crucial role in the win, making three field goals in the fourth quarter, including a game-winning 46-yarder as time expired. Quarterbacks Malik Willis and Mason Rudolph also had strong performances, with Rudolph throwing a 15-yard touchdown pass to Nick Westbrook-Ikhine.
On the defensive side, the Titans limited the Seahawks to only 12 first downs and two third-down conversions out of nine attempts. Rookie outside linebacker Jaylen Harrell stood out with two sacks in the game. The Titans will look to carry this momentum into their matchup against the Saints.
The Saints, under the leadership of head coach Dennis Allen, are coming off a 16-10 loss to the San Francisco 49ers in their last preseason game. Quarterback Derek Carr, in his second season with the Saints, had a solid performance in 2023, passing for 3,878 yards and 25 touchdowns. Carr previously worked with Titans head coach Brian Callahan in 2018 when Callahan was his position coach in Oakland.
As the Titans and Saints face off in their final preseason game, both teams will be looking to fine-tune their rosters and strategies before the start of the regular season. Fans can expect an exciting matchup between these two competitive teams as they prepare for the upcoming NFL season.
