The yearly event is one of the oldest and largest parades in the country, according to parade officials. The parade has been a family tradition since its inception in 1924.

The Titans performed in front of thousands of people who lined Woodward Avenue in the brisk cold Thanksgiving morning.

This is the second time the Titans have gone to Detroit for the parade. They first marched there in 2017. They have also performed in Chicago and New York.
