Offensive guard Rodger Saffold may take the field for the Tennessee Titans now, but Nashville isn’t the city where he got his NFL start.
The Titans face a long offseason after falling just one game short of Super Bowl LIV, and players like Saffold are taking advantage of the period of downtime.
Saffold returned to St. Louis on Sunday — the city where he played with the Rams for six seasons. He suited up for the team for three years after it moved to Los Angeles, then signed with the Titans in 2019.
The St. Louis BattleHawks are the new team taking up residence in The Dome at America’s Center since the Rams left, and were well-received by the town as they recorded a 29-9 victory in their home opener.
“Man the dome still brings back memories,” Saffold wrote. “I got chills walking on the field with the smell of football in the air! Long story short I appreciate the city that gave me my first start!”
The BattleHawks (2-1) are set to face the Seattle Dragons in their second-straight home contest at 4 p.m. CST on Saturday.
