Dennis Kelly is the third OL in Conference Championship history to score a receiving TD.

#Titans tackle Dennis Kelly is the only offensive lineman since 2000 with 2 receiving TD in a season.

He’s the third player to weigh 300+ pounds over that span to do so. The others are Ravens FB/DL Patrick Ricard & HOF DT Warren Sapp.@Titans
