After losing running back LeGarrette Blount for the season, the Patriots signed Montee Ball to bolster their depleted backfield. But the Patriots didn't activate Ball on Sunday, instead promoting rookie fullback Joey Iosefa to the game roster.
The Titans defense found out why in the second quarter, when the Patriots actually handed the ball to Iosefa. The Patriots' website says Iosefa weighs 245 pounds. Coty Sensabaugh felt the full weight of the fullback as Iosefa ran over the smaller defensive back at the line of scrimmage.
In all, he rumbled for a 15-yard gain.

For what it's worth, Iosefa has more than 50 pounds on Sensabaugh. Next time, Sensabaugh might want to go for Iosefa's legs.
