For the second game in a row, Manziel and Benjamin hooked up on a long touchdown pass, this one a 60-yarder that gave the Cleveland Browns a 7-0 lead over the Tennessee Titans early in the first quarter Sunday.

Manziel's throw came on the Browns' second offensive play following a 2-yard run by Isaiah Crowell. On second down, the Browns ran play-action, and Tennessee left the deep middle of the field uncovered.

Benjamin beat Coty Sensabaugh and ran under Manziel's deep throw at the 12-yard line to score easily.

The throw was the second TD in two games for Manziel, both to Benjamin. The two connected for a 54-yard score in Cleveland's season-opening loss to the New York Jets.

According to ESPN Stats & Information, Manziel has thrown two passes longer than 30 yards in his brief time with the Browns; both went for touchdowns to Benjamin.
