Titans: A.J. Brown, Khari Blasingame get national attention for Week 14 performances
A pair of Tennessee Titans players got some national attention for their Week 14 performances.
Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown‘s sensational performance and running back Khari Blasingame‘s highlight-reel catch from Week 14 garnered both players some national attention this week.
Brown caught a 91-yard touchdown that was enough in and of itself to get him some attention, but his game overall earned him Game Ball of the Week.
Brown finished with a career-high 153 yards in the Week 14 win, while also adding two touchdowns. All of a sudden, Brown is in the conversation for Offensive Rookie of the Year, and with 779 yards on the season is flirting with 1,000 for the season.
Another Titan who made the national scene was Blasingame for his incredible catch on a wheel route that happened to be over former Titan Will Compton, who is now a linebacker for the Raiders.
On the Monday Night Football segment “You got Mossed” on ESPN, Blasingame made the cut and was called “the mystery man” by Hall of Fame wide receiver, Randy Moss.
As you can imagine, Compton wasn’t thrilled about being part of the clip.
That was one of two catches by Blasingame, who totaled 47 yards through the air on the afternoon. The Vanderbilt product ended up with the second-most receiving yards for the Titans in Week 14. Go figure.
Before the start of the season, Tennessee wasn’t really getting attention as a team that could do much in 2019, but now that the wins are rolling in and this team is playing at a high level, people around the league are starting to take notice.
The man getting perhaps the most attention has been quarterback Ryan Tannehill. The former No. 8 overall pick has been getting rave reviews by anyone who mentions him, and rightfully so, he’s in the midst of a great season and has revived his career after being left for dead last season.
