As of this writing, Tennessee is 2-2 after four weeks. In Week 4, they brought the Jets their first win of the season. Although they dominated the game on paper with almost 100 more total yards and 100 more rushing yards, the Titans failed to contain their opponents in overtime.

Ryan Tannehill finished the night with 298 yards and a touchdown on 30-of-49 passing His number one target was Jeremy McNichols, who had a team-high 74 yards on 8 receptions, but only Cameron Batson managed to produce a receiving touchdown. Additionally, the Titans emphasized their rushing plays that night as Derrick Henry led the unit with 175 yards and 1 touchdown on 33 carries.

In their most recent game, Trevor Lawrence helped his team pull away in the first half and finished his run with 204 yards on 17-of-24 passing.
