Chig Okonkwo caught all six targets for 63 yards and a touchdown in the Titans’ Week 16 loss to the Seahawks.
Okonkwo’s touchdown catch was on a trick play pass from Derrick Henry where Okonkwo found himself wide open in the back of the end zone, but the points count the same. With Ryan Tannehill under pressure most of the game, Okonkwo became the preferred safety value, leading the team in targets and catches. It’s only the second time all season that Okonkwo has topped 50 yards receiving, and the first time he’s done so in regulation, so we should temper our expectations for him going forward. However, he will have Will Levis back under center next week against a banged up Texans defense, so he is firmly on the TE2 radar.
