The Tennessee Titans made their preseason debut on Friday night against the Atlanta Falcons and grabbed the victory, 23-3.
Tennessee’s defense, which featured some projected starters and other key players early on, shined, getting consistent pressure throughout the first half on Falcons quarterback, A.J. McCarron.
Tennessee notched a pair of sacks and an interception during the first two quarters. The Falcons failed to make it into Titans territory in the first half, and head coach Arthur Smith’s offense struggled the entire way, albeit without its starters.
On the offensive side of the ball, it was not a good night for Tennessee’s offensive line, which didn’t feature any projected starters. Quarterback Logan Woodside faced consistent pressure, but still managed to have a solid showing overall. To be quite frank, he was lucky to escape in one piece.
The Titans saw a handful of injuries during the contest as well, the most notable of which happened to running back Darrynton Evans.
We’ll go over the injuries and the rest of the important things of note from Tennessee’s Preseason Week 1 win over the Falcons.
