Knoxville, Chattanooga Fox affiliates pass on Titans game, for now

Published November 12, 2026 06:15 PM The Tennessee Titans apparently need an asterisk on their name.At least two TV markets in the state for which the team is named have passed on televising their Week 10 game against the Jaguars.Drew Lerner of Awful Announcing explains that 506sports.com coverage map shows that the Knoxville and Chattanooga Fox affiliates will not televise the Jaguars-Titans game. Instead, Vikings-Packers will be shown in the 1:00 p.m. ET window.It’s a preliminary map, as Lerner notes. The Fox affiliates in Knoxville and Chattanooga, the third- and fourth-largest cities in the league by way of population, could change their minds.Making the situation even more unusual is the fact that Fox won’t get many Titans games, because they’re usually on CBS. The obvious takeaway is that the Fox affiliates in Knoxville and Chattanooga believe that more people will watch Packers-Vikings than will watch Jaguars-Titans.It’s not personal, it’s business. And the affiliates think they’re business interests are best served by showing Packers-Vikings not Jaguars-Titans.
