Rutgers Alum Shine in First Pre-Season Game
So the Titans and Bills squared off in last nights Hall of Fame Game. Even though the anticipation of seeing Kenny Britt play was haulted when he was ruled inactive nursing his hamstring, Rutger Loyales we able to watch another Rutger Rookie play on the big stage.
Jason Mccourty, played almost the second half at CB and KR for the Titans. He got his first chance at a Kick Return that was kicked poorly and basically squibbed to the five. Mccourty bobled it, but was able to recover for a few yards. He also shut down the left side of the Titans defense, covering WR well enough that the QB would look the other way. He didn't make to many tackles, but his coverage skills were not allowing the ball to come his way.
He got another chance at a KR, which was much better than the first and he brought the ball past the 25 maybe even the 30. But it was until he was on Defense again where he shined. The Bills were trying to rally for a 4th quarter comeback, when Mccourty jumbed a ten yard button hook to pick off the pass. He did an excellent job of tip toeing the side line to keep two feet in bounds. This play prompted a 3 minute discussion by the announcers on Mccourty and Rutgers, and made me proud to see that RU was getting so air time!
Did this quick at work, please excuse any mistakes
Don't say anything offensive, no nudity, yada yada yada - you get the point. Don't be bad.
