New York Jets running back Bilal Powell excelled once again as a complementary weapon on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans. Powell had just three carries for 36 yards. However, most of his damage came from receptions out of the backfield. Powell caught all five of his targets for 46 yards and a touchdown. Through two weeks, Powell has 22 touches for 190 total yards and two touchdowns. Running back Chris Ivory continues to handle the majority of rushing attempts, but Powell is proving to be a useful weapon on passing downs.
