Winner No. 4: Kamalei Correa

With the prospects of the Titans claiming recently-released outside linebacker Terrell Suggs off waivers, Kamalei Correa made a pretty big case for him to remain the starter for the last two weeks of the season.

Correa finished Sunday’s loss with four tackles, one tackle for a loss, and a sack of of Deshaun Watson on the Texans’ third drive of the game that lead to a three-and-out. He also had a quarterback hit, and was by far the most disruptive pass-rusher on the team in the game.

While he has proven to be more of an asset against the run game, Correa definitely showed off his ability to disrupt the passing game and get to the quarterback, and while I’m not completely opposed to claiming Suggs, Correa definitely has proved that he deserves to be a part of the Titans’ defense in these final two games of the season.
