Titans Postpone Chris Johnson Ring of Honor Ceremony

Published 12 September 2026

The Tennessee Titans have postponed the Ring of Honor induction ceremony for former star running back Chris Johnson, citing unforeseen circumstances that prevented him and his family from traveling to Nashville for the team's season opener. The ceremony was originally scheduled for halftime of the Titans' game against the New York Jets on Sunday, September 14, 2026. The team announced the delay in a statement released on Friday, September 11. "Due to unforeseen circumstances, Chris Johnson and his family are no longer able to travel to Nashville for this Sunday's game," the statement read. "Knowing how much he and his family desire to be in person at Nissan Stadium for his induction into the Titans Ring of Honor, we will postpone the official induction ceremony and look forward to celebrating the moment with them at a future date." Despite the postponement of the formal induction, the Titans confirmed that a halftime ceremony during the September 14 game will still be held to celebrate Johnson's career and legacy. The team did not provide specific details about the nature of the travel issues.
