The Tennessee Titans have been looking for a spark in their passing game all season long, and rookie tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo provided one in Week 9 against the Kansas City Chiefs.
During the first quarter and with the Titans trailing Kansas City 3-0, rookie quarterback Malik Willis dumped it off to the rookie tight end on a screen on the first play of the game.
Okonkwo reeled it in and proceeded to run through a bunch of Chiefs defenders en route to a 48-yard gain, which is the longest of Okonkwo’s young career. Check out the Maryland product’s awesome play below.
