LAST WEEK AGAINST THE COLTS
Following their Week 5 bye, the Titans hosted the division rival Indianapolis Colts at Nissan Stadium last week. The Titans took a 17-10 lead into the fourth quarter, but the Colts scored the game’s final 10 points to escape with a 20-17 win. Starting quarterback Will Levis was back in the lineup after missing most of the previous contest at Miami with a right shoulder injury. He passed for 95 yards and completed a nine-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Nick Westbrook-*Ikhine* in the first quarter.
The Titans’ second touchdown against the Colts came courtesy of running back Tony Pollard. During the opening drive of the second half, with the Titans facing a third-and-19, Pollard found the end zone on a 23-yard rushing attempt. He finished the contest with 93 rushing yards, and through five contests he leads the team with 339 rushing yards and 421 total scrimmage yards (82 receiving).
On the defensive side, safety Amani Hooker registered his first interception of 2024 and the eighth interception of his six-year career. He set up the team’s first touchdown with a 30-yard return.
Through six weeks of the NFL season, the Titans rank first in total defense, allowing opposing offenses an average of only 248.8 yards per game. They rank second in the league in passing defense, yielding only 137.0 passing yards per contest.
