Ward, who was chosen first overall by the Titans<\/a> in the 2025 NFL Draft<\/a>, swapped the red, no-contact Titans jersey he wore earlier in the day during rookie minicamp for the Bananas get-up. He was joined by the other Titans rookie draft picks, including receiver Chimere Dike<\/a>, safety Kevin Winston Jr.<\/a>, outside linebacker Oluwafemi Oladejo<\/a>, running back Kalel Mullings<\/a>, cornerback Marcus Harris<\/a>, guard Jackson Slater<\/a> and tight end Gunnar Helm<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The newest Titans were introduced before the Bananas game against the Party Animals. But the newest Titans weren’t the only Titans in attendance.<\/p>\n

Which other Titans were at the Savannah Bananas game at Nissan Stadium?<\/p>\n

A few minutes before Ward some other Titans rookies were introduced to the crowd of nearly 70,000, former Titans great Jevon Kearse took the pitcher’s mound, took off his shirt and stepped onto a yellow scale. The three-time Pro Bowl selection and one-time All-Pro defensive end then strutted to the front of the mound and went face-to-face with a shirtless Party Animals player.<\/p>\n

The two feigned a fight before flexing during a danceoff, much to the crowd’s delight.<\/p>\n

Was country music star Dierks Bentley<\/a> at the Savannah Bananas game?<\/p>\n

Yes. Yes, he was. Bentley, a 15-time Grammy Award nominee, performed a song before the game.<\/p>\n
