The Tennessee Titans will play one more season in the current Nissan Stadium before the new stadium opens in 2027, but questions are looming about filling the seats in the new stadium.
A new report indicates that the Titans, along with a handful of other teams, saw their attendance drop in 2025 for the first time since the pandemic.
Tracking box office attendance comes with a caveat: It doesn’t account for no-shows; it only tracks how many tickets were distributed. However, this is the metric we have to work with, and the Titans saw the largest drop in attendance of any other team.
Seven total teams saw a drop in attendance greater than 1%: the Titans (9.1%), New York Jets (5.1%), Cleveland Browns (3.9%), Cincinnati Bengals (2%), Jacksonville Jaguars (1.7%), Atlanta Falcons (1.1%), and Baltimore Ravens (1%).
The league as a whole saw a 0.8% drop in attendance, and there are a lot of reasons the Titans fell the most. Even so, they sold over 85% of their tickets in 2025, but that percentage could rise when the new stadium is done because it holds 60,000 seats compared to the current stadium’s 69,000 seats.
