Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill went airborne for the first score of the Week 12 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill has already proven he’ll do whatever it takes to get extra yards and put points on the board, and he showed it once again in Week 12 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
With the Titans looking at a first-and-10 from the Jaguars’ 21-yard line, Tannehill tucked it and ran on a bootleg and made his way to the end zone for the score, but not before having to go airborne to get there.

The run was just another example of Tannehill, who is a great athlete and a former wide receiver, being more willing to use his legs lately. Prior to that run, Tannehill scampered for 20 yards during the first quarter.
Tannehill has run for 37 and 38 yards in each of the last two weeks, however the 41 yards he compiled on just two runs in Week 12 are the most in a single game for him this season – and we still have an entire half of football left!
With the score, the Titans took a 7-0 lead on the Jaguars. The offense has been moving the ball pretty well to start the game, but simply hadn’t been able to finish their first few drives.
Tannehill, who had turned the ball over in the red zone earlier that ended the Titans’ streak of 10 straight trips to the red zone with a touchdown, made sure his team wouldn’t be denied again.
The Titans quarterback continues to do whatever it takes to elevate his team.
