Head coach Mike Vrabel and his Tennessee Titans won't take the field until Monday evening against the Denver Broncos as Week 1 continues to roll on in a big way on Sunday.
However, that doesn't mean that Vrabel and the Titans, who are expected to compete at a very high level in 2020, haven't made some headlines on Sunday as the well-liked head coach led his players to the team plane with a pretty clear message written on his face mask.
If you were wondering what the Titans game plan would be come Monday evening in Denver, the secret is officially out as Vrabel could be seen sporting a face covering that read, “Please give the ball to Derrick Henry.” While this was hardly a secret to begin with, the fact that Vrabel and company have this message displayed so blatantly, tells you all you need to know about the Titans' confidence heading into the team's looming Week 1 matchup against the up-and-coming—though banged-up—Broncos (via the team's official Twitter account).

Last season, the tandem of Vrabel and Henry led the Titans all the way to an appearance in the AFC Championship Game against the eventual Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs, a team that Tennessee actually managed to defeat during the 2019 regular season.
Prior to a second matchup with the Chiefs, a clash that the Titans led for some time before ultimately coming up short in Kansas City, Tennessee beat both the heralded New England Patriots and top-seeded Baltimore Ravens in the postseason.
As a result of last season's impressive effort, the Titans are currently favored to win the AFC South division this time around, and the recently extended Henry could be a huge part of that.
