The 5 most impressive Titans players so far in 2020

The Titans flawless start to the season came to end on Sunday afternoon, as the Titans fell to the Steelers by a score of 27-24.

This was bound to happen eventually, and losing to the Steelers is not exactly something to be embarrassed about. The Titans are still standing at 5-1 and in first place in the AFC South.

With 7 weeks of the 2020 season in the books, there is more than enough sample size to form several conclusions. For one, Derrick Henry is good. Like REALLY good. And all of that talk about Ryan Tannehill’s amazing 2019 season being a fluke? Yeah, turns out he’s legit too.

While the high-priced players on the Titans’ offense have done their share, the team has also gotten welcome contributions from several role players. Due to COVID-19 and multiple injury issues, the Titans have to had to look in unlikely places for contributions.

Anthony Firkser, the backup tight end, exploded out of nowhere and dropped an 8 catch, 113-yard game.

Kalif Raymond, while seldom used, has come up huge when called upon and also has a +100 yard game on the season.

The entire starting offensive line for the Titans has been exceptional as well, as they are currently tied with Indianapolis for the fewest sacks allowed. However, with all of these performances, 5 players still stand as the most impressive so far this season.
