Cameron Wake knows how to hit a career milestone in style!
The former Penn State defender has gone on to make a name for himself as a pass rusher in the NFL. He entered Week 1 with 98 career sacks, but he eclipsed 100 in his season debut.
Wake recorded one sack early in the game, but he saved the milestone play for a little later. He exploded over the right side of Cleveland’s line, launching himself straight for quarterback Baker Mayfield.

Wake grabbed Mayfield from behind and quickly executed a takedown tackle for career sack No. 100. It was also a safety for the Titans who went on to win in a blowout over the Browns.
For the game, Wake recorded 2.5 sacks, 2 TFL, and 4 QB hits. That’s one way to make a season debut.
Here’s the safety that gave Wake 100 career sacks:
