Before the long haul of the 2019 NFL season begins, Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel is going to take his family on a road trip in his RV.

The NFL season is always a long and grueling one for coaches, filled with long nights and a lot of stress. That’s especially true for the head coach of an NFL team and that fact will be no different for Tennessee Titans head coach, Mike Vrabel.

After a 9-7 season for the Titans in Vrabel’s first as a head coach, expectations are high from the fanbase—as they should be, with the Titans sporting arguably one of the best rosters this team has seen since quarterback Marcus Mariota has been in the league.

So, how is Vrabel enjoying the little time off he has left before training camp begins in July? He’s taking a road trip in his RV, of course.

According to Jim Wyatt of Titans Online, Vrabel calls himself “King of the road” as he cruises to Atlanta for a vacation for the second year in a row.

"“King of the road,” Vrabel said of his driving style. “Right down the middle. They’ll go around you.”“I did a good enough job (driving) last year to Atlanta that I talked Jen into doing that trip again,” Vrabel said with a smile."

Despite enjoying the time with his family, Vrabel admits he is still thinking about football while dominating the road on his way to Atlanta.

After all, how could he not? The Titans and football as a whole will be consuming Vrabel’s mind after this short summer break at least until the end of December, and hopefully longer if the Titans make the playoffs.

Vacation or not, Vrabel’s competitive nature doesn’t stop on the football field.

"“I just believe that winners carry themselves with a bounce in their step, they move a little quicker,” he said. “You go on vacation and you go on a roller coaster ride, be the first. Beat the guy next to you in line, you know what I mean? My wife is always like, ‘Why are you 20 yards in front of everybody?’ I’m like, ‘You’ve got to catch up to me. I’m trying to beat this guy in line.’ She’s like, ‘What’s the rush?’ ‘I don’t know, but it’s something that we have to do. We have to all get up here and beat this other family in line.’”"

Now that sounds like a football coach.
