Tennessee Titans beat down Cleveland Browns: Winners and Losers

Winner: Delanie Walker, TE

There are so many players that I want to see succeed, but maybe no one on the roster deserved the day they had today more than Delanie Walker.

A year ago almost to the day the veteran TE that many were already saying was “too old”, broke his ankle and was put on injured reserve. It was an injury that really hurt the Titans as a team and one that made people doubt Walker’s ability for some reason, even though he had been doing well until that point.

After people with no clue what the Titans needed mocking them T.J. Hockenson or Noah Fant for a full offseason, the Titans stuck to their guns and believed in Delanie Walker. To their credit Walker ended his day with 5 catches for 55 yards and 2 TDs.

He looked great blocking and he sold play fakes so well that he could have almost been in the endzone by himself if the safeties weren’t so scared to try to tackle Derrick Henry.

Delanie Walker was the glue that held this team together for a long time and when he was signed to the roster, it was the first signing in a long time that really stuck and overpowered on his deal.

I don’t know if a career year in yards is coming, but I could definitely see a career year in touchdowns if he keeps up anywhere near the pace he is on now.
