Titans social media rips Kristian Fulton, run defense for awful showings

After dominating the rivalry for the majority of the last three seasons, the Tennessee Titans finally got humbled by the Indianapolis Colts in Week 5, losing 23-16.

The Titans have lost all three of their games on the road in 2023, with this one being arguably the most gut-wrenching of them all.

Tennessee was simply beaten at its own game, as the Colts were the more physical team on a day in which Indy ran for nearly 200 yards.

To make matters worse, Kristian Fulton continued to be a complete liability. The LSU product was often getting cooked by the opposition whenever he was targeted and bailed the Colts’ offense out with ridiculous pass interference penalties that extended drives and led to points.

It’s hardly an exaggeration to say that Fulton has mostly been horrible this season in a contract year in which many (myself included) genuinely believed he was on the verge of a breakout campaign.

Instead, he’s likely cost himself a lot of money with the type of play he’s been putting on film.

Titans fans and media members certainly agree, as they rightly ate him alive on social media following his disastrous afternoon. Tennessee’s run defense certainly didn’t get a pass, either.
