In this episode of the Sprint-Based Football presented by Titans Sensors, host Tony Holler is joined by John Shaw, Assistant Coach of Speed and Performance for the Tennessee Titans, for an in-depth conversation on the power of speed development in professional football. Coach Shaw shares his unique perspective on how speed impacts player performance, injury prevention, and long-term athletic success—even at the highest level of the sport.

The discussion explores how collaboration between coaches drives athlete development, why quality over quantity matters in training, and how technology is shaping the future of performance. John also reflects on his journey to the NFL, the challenges and surprises along the way, and the values that continue to shape his coaching philosophy. From his early days working with young athletes to leading speed programs for elite professionals, John emphasizes the importance of consistency, relationship-building, and a relentless pursuit of excellence.
