Tennessee Titans quarterback Marcus Mariota talks on the field following practice at NFL football training camp Friday
All four of quarterback Marcus Mariota’s exhibition games with the Tennessee Titans will be shown locally, beginning with Friday’s opener.
KHON general manager Kristina Lockwood said The CW Network will show the Titans’ preseason opener at Atlanta delayed at 5 p.m. (channels 93/1093 on Oceanic and 2/1002 on Hawaiian Telcom).
The NFL Network is scheduled to show it live at 1 p.m. (203/1203 on Oceanic and 88/1088 on Hawaiian Telcom).
The Titans’ Aug. 23 game with the Rams will be shown live at 2 p.m. on KHON.
Both the Titans’ Aug. 28 game at Kansas City and Sept. 3 game against Minnesota will be shown delayed at 5 p.m. on CW.
Lockwood said soon after the Heisman Trophy winner from Saint Louis School was drafted by Tennessee KHON contacted its Media General sister station, WKRN, in Nashville, which holds the rights to the Titans’ non-national exhibition games. “We wanted to secure those games,” Lockwood said.
Meanwhile, KFVE general manager John Fink said his station will carry 16 NFL preseason games beginning Thursday with Green Bay at New England at 1 p.m. and Washington at Cleveland at 5 p.m. on delay.
Friday KFVE will air the New York Giants at Cincinnati at 1:30 p.m. and St. Louis at Oakland at 5 p.m. on delay.
