Titans’ Rishard Matthews off to best start with 6 TD catches
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The offseason addition of wide receiver Rishard Matthews has paid big dividends for the Tennessee Titans.
Matthews already has set a career high with six touchdown catches — all within the past six weeks.
Only Tampa Bay’s Mike Evans and Jordy Nelson of Green Bay (eight) and Pittsburgh’s Antonio Brown (seven) have more touchdown catches in the NFL than Matthews, who is tied with four others.
And the receiver easily is poised to turn in the most receptions and yards receiving in just his first year working with quarterback Marcus Mariota.
