Change seems to be one of the few constants with the Tennessee Titans these days.
The team run by Amy Adams Strunk – daughter of the late Bud Adams, who moved the Oilers out of Houston and into Tennessee – has employed four different head coaches and four different general managers since 2022. The winless Titans, who have won just six games in the past 2 ½ seasons, play the Houston Texans on Sunday in just the seventh matchup of 0-4 teams since the Super Bowl era began. Before doing so, however, Adams Strunk made major shakeups in her front office Wednesday.

The Titans let go of three vice presidents that have more to do with the business side of the operation, including Erin Swartz, the person who oversaw the much-hyped uniform change in March when the team leaned into their Houston Oilers roots, despite playing in front of a fan base that loudly denounced all things Oilers after the team first moved to Tennessee in 1997.
Aside from Swartz, who was the team’s senior vice president of brand marketing, the team, which will move into a new stadium in 2027 and host the Super Bowl in 2030, also parted ways with senior vice president and chief revenue officer Adam Nuse and vice president of creative Charles Jensen.
“As the Titans prepare for the opening of our new stadium and the future of Titans football, we are making changes to how we lead the business side of the organization,” the Titans said in a statement to the Nashville Tennessean. “We will hire an Executive Vice President and Chief Business Officer to lead our revenue, marketing, and communications teams. As part of these changes, Adam Nuse, Erin Swartz, and Charles Jensen are leaving the organization. We are grateful for everything they have contributed to the Titans and wish them the best in future endeavors.”

Swartz had spent 17 years with the Minnesota Vikings before joining the Titans in 2024. Nuse was vice president of the Corpus Christi Hooks – the Houston Astros’ Double-A team – for 10 years before working as president and general manager of the Triple-A Nashville Sounds. He left the Sounds for the Titans in 2021. Jensen joined the team in 2025.
An internal memo about the changes from Burke Nihill, the team’s president and CEO thanked Titans employees for their “flexibility and resilency,” while also reminding them to “please keep internal updates like this confidential and do not share them outside the organization,” according to the memo that was leaked to longtime Titans reporter Paul Kuharsky, who published it on his website Wednesday night.
