The Titans Triumph Over Dolphins in Monday Night Football
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. – In a thrilling Monday night matchup, the Tennessee Titans emerged victorious over the Miami Dolphins with a final score of 31-12. The game took an unexpected turn when Titans’ starter Will Levis exited early with a shoulder injury, paving the way for backup Mason Rudolph to step up and lead his team to victory.
Rudolph showcased his talent by orchestrating seven scoring drives, completing 9 of 17 passes for 85 yards. Nick Folk sealed the deal for the Titans with five successful field goals, while running back Tyjae Spears and Tony Pollard contributed with impressive touchdown runs.
