Justin Hunter’s biggest criticism coming out of Tennessee was his softness and his suspect hands.

Despite those concerns, he was the first pick of the second round by the Tennessee Titans, in this past year’s draft.

Hunter had a rough camp, drawing the ire of his position coach at times, but he’s rebounded in the past couple of weeks.

Last week Hunter caught the game-winning touchdown. This week he made an even more impressive catch.

If Hunter keeps making catches in the end-zone like this, he’ll be a regular fixture in the Titan’s wide receiver rotation. It already appears that embattled Titans wide receiver Kenny Britt is slowly being phased out, which could mean even more playing time for the former Tennessee Volunteer.
