Titans vs. Bengals Player of the Game: NT T’Vondre Sweat

The Tennessee Titans fell to the Cincinnati Bengals, 37-27, in Week 15 and nose tackle T’Vondre Sweat is our Player of the Game.

The Tennessee Titans hosted the Cincinnati Bengals at Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee on Sunday in Week 15 of the 2024 NFL season.

The game featured the NFL’s top offense and the NFL’s second-ranked defense facing off against each other in a battle between former rivals.

The Titans were eliminated from playoff contention after last week’s loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, but the Bengals’ playoff hopes are still alive despite the Titans’ best efforts to derail them.

It was a tough outing for the Titans, who fell 37-27 to the Bengals in a game that saw far too many offensive turnovers. The biggest bright spot the Titans had today was in rookie nose tackle T’Vondre Sweat, who is this week’s Player of the Game.

Sweat played his best game of the season against the Bengals, but the evidence doesn’t lie in his stat line, which includes three tackles (one solo).

Sweat was a major disruption for Cincinnati’s offense, especially in the first half when he stripped Joe Burrow of the ball and ran it back 30 yards. Seeing that makes a solid case for future Warren Sapp-type plays for Sweat.

The Bengals often double-covered Jeffery Simmons, which gave Sweat more freedom to become a problem. The rookie defender certainly has a bright NFL future ahead of him.
