It has been a quiet, disappointing season for Tennessee Titans tight end Austin Hooper, but the veteran stepped up big time in Week 7 versus the Indianapolis Colts.
Hooper came up with some chain-moving catches on Sunday, but the biggest of them came in the fourth quarter when he was targeted on third down with a little over five minutes remaining and the Titans clinging to a six-point lead.
Hooper caught the ball, had it knocked out by a Colts defensive back, bobbled it and still managed to come down with the catch in what was an incredible show of concentration and control.
With the catch, Hooper upped his season-high receiving yards total to 56, the highest mark on the team. He also helped set the Titans up with a field goal, extending Tennessee’s lead to 19-10.
