Former Houston Oilers and Tennessee Titans executive Bob Hyde has passed away, the team announced on Friday evening.
A native of Tennessee, Hyde worked in community and public relations over his multiple decades with the franchise, including serving as the Titans’ vice president of community relations.
“We are heartbroken to hear of Bob Hyde’s passing today,” Titans owner Amy Adams Strunk via statement. “Joining the Oilers as a public relations college intern in 1977, he worked in a variety of roles – public relations, community relations and special projects – over a 30-year association with our organization, making an impact in many ways both large and small. Many in our building refer to him as ‘Mr. Oiler,’ and his loyalty and devotion to this organization and its players was evident on a daily basis.”
🙏🏿RIP🙏🏿
I remember some long days on the Titans caravan getting to know Bob and taking a trip to his hometown in Tennessee. He absolutely loved the Titans and everyone involved.
Bob was a great dude and will be missed! https://t.co/p4NE3L7h3R
