Titans Promote Assistant Mike Munchak To Replace Jeff Fisher

Tennessee Titans owner Bud Adams have promoted assistant Mike Munchak to head coach to replace Jeff Fisher. Munchak becomes the 16th head coach in the Oilers/Titans franchise history.

“Mike has been successful at everything he has been associated with at our franchise and I have no reason to believe that he won’t be successful as our head coach,” Owner Bud Adams said in a statement. “He earned Hall of Fame distinction as a player and yearly he has been one of the best offensive line coaches in the NFL. He understands where we have been and knows where we need to go.” ~ San Jose Mercury

Munchak, 51, is the team’s second head coach since it moved to Tennessee and the first former player to coach the team. Munchak had been an assistant to Fisher for 14 years before being promoted.

Munchak, who played 12 years for the same franchise he’s coaching, played in nine Pro Bowls in his career and was inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame in 2001.
