Ryan Tannehill leads the Titans to a comeback win over the Kansas City Chiefs

Christopher Hanewinckel-USA TODAY Sports

His stats aren’t gaudy, his game isn’t flashy, but Ryan Tannehill is starting to establish himself as “the guy” in Nashville. In his third game as the starter, the former Texas A&M Aggie had his first signature win as the starting quarterback of the Tennessee Titans.

In a back and forth affair, Tennessee’s win over the Kansas City Chiefs — with Patrick Mahomes— got wild in the fourth quarter. Up by five with less than two minutes left, the Chiefs attempted a field goal. It wound up mismanaged, giving the Titans ideal field position to string together a win.

Tannehill drove his Titans down the field on a four-play, 61-yard drive that took 58 seconds off the clock. The last score came on a decisive 23-yard touchdown pass to slot receiver Adam Humphries. That score decided that Tennessee still has a fighting chance in the division.

The Titans will enjoy a bye week before facing the Jaguars in Week 12.

Giants nominate Golden Tate for Salute to Service Award

New York Giants WR Golden Tate is the team’s nominee for the 2019 Salute to Service Award presented by USAA.

Wide receiver Golden Tate has been named the New York Giants’ nominee for the 2019 Salute to Service Award, which is presented to the “league member who demonstrates an exemplary commitment to honoring and supporting the military community.”

From the NFL and USAA, which sponsors the award:

Golden Tate has shown his passion and dedication to those who have served in the United States military through the creation of his foundation, the Golden Future Foundation. In 2014, Golden and his wife, Elise, created the Golden Future Foundation. This foundation is set up to enhance the lives of American heroes and their families. Golden Tate also participated in the 2016 NFL-USO Tour.

Their passion for giving back to the military is because Golden’s grandfather and both of Elise’s grandfathers served in the military. They believe that the true American heroes in our country are often overlooked, and they deserve our utmost respect, appreciation, and resources to get acclimated back into society after serving our country. Through the foundation, Golden and Elise have dedicated their resources, energy and time, to help provide a Golden Future for our true American heroes. Golden has hosted numerous events to show his support for the military as well as raising funds for his foundation to assist veterans reacclimate to everyday life once returning home from service to our country. From coat drives to bowling events, Golden has contributed his time and resources to insuring that members of the military receive the respect, honor, and appreciation they deserve.

Tate and his wife created the Golden Future Foundation, which aims to improve the lives of U.S. military members.

Finalists for the award will be announced in January, and the recipient will be recognized at the NFL Honors awards show in Miami on Saturday, Feb. 1.
