Cleveland kicker Andre Szmyt made up for an earlier miss by nailing the game-winner from 32 yards on the final play of Sunday afternoon’s 27-24 victory over the Tennessee Titans in Nashville, Tenn.<\/p>\n
After Tennessee tied it 24-24 with 58 seconds remaining on Tony Pollard’s third touchdown of the day, Deshaun Watson hit Harold Fannin Jr. for 36 yards with 28 seconds left.<\/p>\n
Szmyt, who missed from 43 yards in the fourth quarter, booted the winner to keep the Browns (5-2) atop the AFC North.<\/p>\n
Watson eclipsed 300 yards for the first time with the Browns as he completed 25 of 36 passes for 308 yards and an interception. He also rushed for a score. Quinshon Judkins carried 17 times for 96 yards with two scores. KC Concepcion had eight receptions for 129 yards.<\/p>\n
The Titans (1-6) came in off a 26-20 road win over Indianapolis and saw Cam Ward go 20-for-31 for 181 yards and an interception. Pollard carried 25 times for 129 yards.<\/p>\n
The Titans scored on their opening series for the first time this season as Pollard carried five times for 60 yards, which included 36 yards for a score.<\/p>\n
Cor’Dale Flott’s 14-yard interception return set up the Titans again. Pollard capitalized on a toss sweep from 10 yards out to double the advantage at 8:35, the second rushing score against a Browns defense that had surrendered just one in 2026.<\/p>\n
Judkins had a 5-yard touchdown run with 5:32 left in the first quarter. Cleveland kept it a one-score game by stuffing Pollard on fourth down at the 1 with 9:34 left in the half.<\/p>\n
The teams exchanged turnovers before Cleveland’s Denzel Ward picked off Cam Ward, which set up Judkins’ second rushing score from six yards out at 2:17. Szmyt’s 28-yard field goal on the half’s final play put the Browns up 17-14.<\/p>\n
The visitors were unable to add on in the first minute of the fourth after Szmyt’s errant 43-yard attempt. However, the Titans’ Joey Slye evened it at 17 with a 29-yard kick with 8:41 left.<\/p>\n
The Browns engineered a 71-yard drive highlighted by Dylan Sampson’s 19-yard run and Concepcion’s 18-yard reception that set up Watson’s keeper from nine yards out for the 24-17 lead with 4:34 left. Ward answered by leading the Titans on a 63-yard march capped by Pollard’s 1-yard plunge with 58 seconds left for the tie.<\/p>\n
