Travis Benjamin trio of touchdowns sink Tennessee Titans

Benjamin trio of touchdowns sink Titans

Travis Benjamin scored three touchdowns to hand the Cleveland Browns a 28-14 win against the Tennessee Titans this evening.

The Browns got off to a good start with backup quarterback Johnny Manziel finding Benjamin behind the Titans defence for a 60-yard touchdown.

Cleveland's defence then forced a fumble from second overall Draft pick Marcus Mariota, and their offence would cash in, with Isaiah Crowell running in for an 11-yard score.

Benjamin would show off his returning skills towards the end of the first half, with the wide receiver bringing a punt 78 yards back downfield and into the endzone for a 21-0 lead.

Tennessee had to wait until late in the third quarter for their first score, with Mariota finding Anthony Fasano, who rolled over the goalline to bring the Titans back into the game.

Mariota found Dorial Green-Beckham to bring his team within one touchdown in the fourth quarter, but Benjamin would score his third touchdown late and earn Cleveland their first win of the season.

The result sees both teams end week two with a record of 1-1, with Mariota losing in the NFL for the first time.
