Much like last week, the Minnesota Vikings went into halftime of a preseason game with a lead but, ultimately, couldn’t hold on to it.
The Tennessee Titans scored 17 unanswered points to start the second half of play at U.S. Bank Stadium and held on at the end to preserve a 24-16 victory over the Vikings on Saturday night.
After a largely uneventful first quarter, the Titans drew first blood courtesy of a 33-yard touchdown run by rookie running back Tyjae Spears. Spears took a handoff and hurdled Lewis Cine en route to the end zone, and the visitors staked themselves to a 7-0 lead with a minute left in the first quarter of play.
