Wide Receivers: B+

This was overall one of the better performances of the season for this wide receiver unit.

This group did a great job of picking up yards after the catch in this game. Tannehill trusted these guys to maximize the play after the catch, and time after time, they did just that.

Corey Davis finished with 80 yards and a touchdown on six catches, with rookie AJ Brown adding 64 yards on six of his own catches.

Tajae Sharpe added a touchdown on a beautiful route that left him wide open in the back of the end zone.

Sharpe finished with 19 yards on two catches. Adam Humphries added 40 yards on four receptions.

All-and-all, it was a great day to be a receiver for the Titans. With Tannehill slinging the ball the way he did, it is not crazy to expect the Titans’ receiving corps to have another solid day like this next week, especially against a porous Tampa Bay Buccaneers pass defense.
