Mason Rudolph led seven scoring drives after starter Will Levis left with a shoulder injury, and the Tennessee Titans beat the Miami Dolphins 31-12 on Monday night
. Rudolph threw for 85 yards and completed 9 of 17 passes in relief of Levis, who attempted just four passes before running and diving for a first down on Tennessee's second drive and coming down hard on his right throwing shoulder. He stood on the sideline with his helmet but didn't return. Nick Folk made field goals of 53, 52, 47, 51 and 29 yards for the Titans, who won their first game of the season. Running back Tyjae Spears took a direct snap and ran it in for a 7-yard touchdown.
Linebacker Emmanuel Ogbah intercepted Levis and secured the ball between his knees to end a promising opening drive for the Titans. The Dolphins gave it right back when Huntley threw a backward pass to Hill that went off the receiver's fingertips. It was initially ruled an incomplete pass but after review, it was overturned to a fumble that Tennessee recovered. That was the first takeaway of the season for the Titans, who entered the game with a minus-7 turnover differential.
