The Tennessee Titans are doing their part in the community to help the people of Nashville recover from the deadly tornadoes that devastated the area on Tuesday.
The first step was a donation made by the Titans Foundation and owner Amy Adams Strunk totaling $1 million dollars. The NFL also kicked in an additional $250,000.
But on Friday, the Titans were more hands-on in the process, as general manager Jon Robinson and head coach Mike Vrabel, as well as players and other members of the organization helped to deliver and unload supplies.
Vrabel talked about helping Nashville out in this difficult time, per Jim Wyatt of Titans Online.
“We’re just a small part of a large community that’s trying to get some supplies and help people wherever we can,” Vrabel said. “A lot of damage. A lot of people’s homes have been taken away from them, and obviously there’s been a lot of people that are out there in those streets that we’ve passed bringing supplies down that are willing to help.
“People have charging stations, people have food, and people have set different things up,” Vrabel continued. “People are grabbing chainsaws, guys are walking down the street with chainsaws, so it’s really cool to see. It’s an honor to be a part of it.”
It will be a long, grueling process to recover from the devastation that this storm left in its wake, but it appears the good people of Nashville are up for the task — and it certainly helps to have support like this.
