Administration

Mike Reinfeldt enters his 29th season in the NFL, third as Titans Executive Vice President/General Manager and 11th with the Oilers/Titans franchise. Reinfeldt's first tenure with the team was from 1976-83 as an All-Pro safety. He re-joined the franchise in 2007, after spending seven years with the Seattle Seahawks.
 
Reinfeldt has built an impressive resume during his career in sports, gaining 23 years of experience as a front office executive and another nine as an NFL player.  In his 17 years as an NFL executive split between Tennessee, Seattle and Green Bay, the teams he was associated with have won a combined seven division titles, made 12 playoff appearances, four NFC Championship game appearances, three Super Bowl appearances, captured one world title (1996), amassed 14 winning seasons and tallied 165 regular season wins.
 
In his first two years with the Titans he has shown the ability to build a team through the draft, free agency and young talent retention. In his first three years of free agency, key players added to the roster include cornerback Nick Harper, wide receivers Justin Gage and Nate Washington, guard Jake Scott, tight end Alge Crumpler and defensive tackle Jovan Haye.
 
From a draft standpoint, the team has continued to see an influx of talent arrive. Both safety Michael Griffin, the 2007 first round selection, and running back Chris Johnson, the 2008 first round selection, were selected to the Pro Bowl last season.
Over the last year and a half, Gage, fullback Ahmard Hall, defensive tackle Tony Brown, guard Eugene Amano, offensive tackles Michael Roos and David Stewart, kicker Rob Bironas, safety Vincent Fuller and quarterback Kerry Collins each signed long-term deals that add to the stability of the roster.
 
In Seattle, Reinfeldt last held the title of Vice President of Football Administration and was responsible for player contract negotiations, salary cap management, player evaluations and numerous aspects of the day-to-day football operations. In eight seasons at Green Bay, he served a number of roles, including Chief Financial Officer for three years (1991-93) and VP of Administration from 1994-98. While with the Packers and under his financial leadership, the team's cash reserves went from $4.5 million in 1991 to more than $50 million in 1998 and improved in revenues from 23rd in 1993 to ninth in 1997. Additionally, Reinfeldt was instrumental in bringing general manager Ron Wolf to the Packers in 1991. When Mike Holmgren left the Packers for Seattle, he handpicked Reinfeldt to join him with the Seahawks with the title of Senior Vice President (1999-03).
 
Reinfeldt was a safety for the Oilers franchise from 1976-83, earning Pro Bowl, All-Pro and AFC Defensive Player of the Year (Kansas City Committee of 101) honors in 1979. He ranks seventh on the club's career interception list with 26 and matched the team record for interceptions in a season with 12 in 1979, which also led the NFL that season. Reinfeldt started 102 consecutive games as the franchise reached the height of the "Luv Ya Blue" era and the team advanced to two AFC Championship games (1978 and 1979). He entered the NFL in 1975, as an undrafted free agent out of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, originally signing with the Oakland Raiders, spending one season on injured reserve and playing in two games in 1976, before being waived and signed by the Oilers.
 
Before joining the Packers' front office in 1991, Reinfeldt spent three years (1988-90) at the University of Southern California as the associate athletic director and spent another three years (1985-88) with the Los Angeles Raiders as the Chief Financial Officer. He earned an MBA in management and finance at Houston Baptist University.
 
A native of Baraboo, Wisc., Reinfeldt was a four-year starter at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and recorded a school-record 24 interceptions, while earning a degree in marketing. He is the only player from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee program to play in the NFL, a distinction which should stand since the school dropped football as a sport in 1975.
 
The 55-year old Reinfeldt and his wife, Susan, have two children - Jared (15) and Elise (14).
