NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) --
Tennessee became the first team in NFL history with two players scoring twice
on returns in a game as the Titans beat the Jacksonville Jaguars 38-20 Sunday
in their season finale.
Darius Reynaud scored on
two punt returns and rookie linebacker Zach Brown returned two interceptions
for touchdowns.
The Titans (6-10) finished
by winning two of their final three games, which may be enough for owner Bud
Adams to keep coach Mike Munchak with two years left on his contract.
Reynaud became the first
player in franchise history to return two punts for TDs on a day the Titans
also set a franchise mark for most points allowed in a season with 471. The
Jaguars (2-14) wrapped up their worst season with their 12th loss in 13 games.
Now owner Shad Khan has to decide whether to fire general manager Gene Smith
and possibly first-year coach Mike Mularkey.
