Content to perhaps fight another day, given the seemingly-unreasonable down-and-distance, Tennessee delivered the ball to its Pro Bowler, hoping for at least a modest return; through his trademark big-play style, Tony Pollard went out and hunted for every yard needed. Turning a 3rd & 19 into a celebratory cause for the 64,302 in attendance, Pollard — on a delayed draw play — sped through open, middle-of-the-field gaps, deploying a series of jukes, broken tackles, and straight-line speed for a 23-yard touchdown. The Titans’ see-saw battle on Oct. 13, 2024 would eventually lead to a 20-17 loss to the Indianapolis Colts, but Pollard was nonetheless remarkable, churning out a 20-touch, 88-yard, one-touchdown effort as one of the afternoon’s surefire stars.
