Winner No. 2: A.J. Brown

It seems that the Titans may have finally found their No. 1 wide receiver.

Brown had a team-high five receptions for 153 yards and two touchdowns, one of which was mentioned in the previous slide.

His second touchdown reception was arguably much more impressive. On a third and 13 after a holding call nullified an Anthony Firkser touchdown, Tannehill found Brown on a short slant route, and Brown was able to muscle his way into the end zone for a 16-yard touchdown, putting the Titans ahead 21-14.

He also added a 13-yard run on the opening drive of the game.

The rookie out of Ole Miss has show a lot of moxie so far this season, and has started to separate himself from the rest of the pack as far as the Titans’ receiving corps is concerned. Every single time he touches the ball, he is a threat to score.

That’s something the Titans have not consistently had in the passing game in quite a while, and it is a beautiful thing to watch.
