Dennis Kelly is the third OL in Conference Championship history to score a receiving TD.
Interestingly, both of the first two happened on the same day, in 2015 pic.twitter.com/0LmzZ2x1FA

#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
