Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis knew he had to take the field Thursday night, a day after his brother, Titus, died. That’s what his older brother would have wanted him to do.
Titus, a former record-setting Central Michigan star, died Wednesday after a months-long battle with renal medullary carcinoma, a rare form of kidney cancer. He was 27 and is survived by two sons.
Corey Davis, 25, was emotional at the start of Thursday night’s 34-17 loss to the Indianapolis Colts at home. After the game he explained the feelings he had throughout the night.
