Second-year defensive back Kendell Brooks returned an interception 53 yards for an opening touchdown, as the Tennessee Titans never trailed in a 23-20 preseason win over the Falcons on Friday in Atlanta.
Brooks, a 25-year-old product of Michigan State with one career tackle, intercepted Falcons quarterback Easton Stick on Atlanta's second drive of the game, putting the Falcons in an early hole. Brandon Allen staked the Titans (1-1) to a 13-3 lead late in the first half, connecting with Gunnar Helm on a 25-yard touchdown pass.
Stick went most of the way for Atlanta (0-2) and had 173 yards on 19-of-32 passing. His third-quarter, 52-yard scoring connection with Chris Blair tied the score at 20 before a Joey Slye 23-yard field goal provided the winning margin for Tennessee.
No. 1 overall draft choice Cam Ward saw limited time for the Titans, completing 2 of 7 passes for 42 yards. Allen passed for 119 yards.
