History

The squad was established in 1975 as the Derrick Dolls, and changed to the current name when the Titans (then known as the Oilers) moved to Tennessee. [2] The group currently has 25 cheerleaders. [3] The squad also makes USO trips, with the members making trips to Kuwait [4] and Diego Garcia for their All-Star Super Bowl Tour. [5] The squad holds auditions at Baptist Sports Park. [6] Other than performances on the field, the squad also has made appearances on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" and "The Dr. Oz Show". Annually, the squad makes a swimsuit calendar, and one that's available to download onto tablets and smartphones. [7] The squad also makes appearances off the field. [8]

The Titans have used male cheerleaders in their history multiple times, from 1999-2003, and again from 2019 to the present. The men were originally called "yell leaders," with a similar role to collegiate cheerleading, and the high-risk stunting returned in 2019.

For the 2025 season, they welcomed their first majorette, Chloe Holladay. [9]
