Titans’ Teair Tart takes a spill trying to celebrate fumble vs. Cowboys

The Tennessee Titans got some much-needed help from their defense in the second quarter of their Week 17 game against the Dallas Cowboys, courtesy of defensive lineman Teair Tart.

With the Titans down 10-0 and the Cowboys at midfield, Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott had a messy exchange with his center, leading to the ball hitting the ground.

Tart made a heads-up play and hopped on the ball to give the Titans it back near midfield.

However, while running down the field to celebrate the turnover in the end zone, the big man tried to get too cute and put the ball between his legs on the way there, which caused him to take a spill.

Unfortunately for the Titans, their offense wasn’t able to do anything with the turnover, as quarterback Josh Dobbs and Co. posted a three-and-out on the next series.

For the Titans’ defense, that is its first fumble recovered since October.
