NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The Tennessee Titans were threatening to score the first points of Sunday's game early in the second quarter when the Houston Texans got an opportune bounce.
On first and goal, Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill threw a pass intended for Anthony Firkser. The ball was knocked out by Texans safety Justin Reid on the goal line, and deflected into the arms of Whitney Mercilus. The outside linebacker ran up the sideline before he was forced out of bounds by Titans tight end Jonnu Smith for an 86-yard interception return.
