Titans quarterback Kerry Collins made a little history on Sunday.

Sure, he now stands as only the 12th quarterback in NFL history with more than 40,000 passing yards. With 98 more yards next week, Collins will pass the great Johnny Unitas for eleventh on the all-time passing list.

That’s cool and all, but Collins pulled something off we bet Johnny U. never did: The Titans quarterback knocked out teammate William Hayes with a throw to the sidelines. Hayes, a defensive lineman, was concussed when one of Collins’ passes hit him in the noggin.

“That’s kind of how the game went,’' coach Jeff Fisher said.
