FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Tennessee Titans running back Dontrell Hilliard provided a much-needed spark against the New England Patriots when he scampered 68 yards for a touchdown just before halftime. The 68-yard touchdown run was the longest by a Titans player since Derrick Henry went down four weeks ago.

Hilliard’s touchdown run came after his fumble on the previous drive led to a 44-yard field goal by New England kicker Nick Folk, which made the score 16-6 in favor of the Patriots. The Patriots could have made the score more lopsided but Mac Jones missed a wide open Hunter Henry for what would have been a touchdown. Instead, the Patriots lead the Titans by a 16-13 score and get the ball back to start the third quarter.
