Will Levis Impresses Looks "Really Impressive" In Camp

Tennessee Titans head coach Brian Callahan reported that quarterback Will Levis has been "really impressive" through their first two days of camp. "I think his hard work this offseason and over the summer has really paid off. He's incredibly confident right now. And he's earned that confidence. ... He's dialed in. He has studied." Levis has a big arm and isn't afraid to use it. He's also mobile enough to extend plays, and it's nice to hear a coach speak highly of a player so early on in camp. Whether it is coach-speak or not still stands to be determined. However, the second-year quarterback garners an underrated arsenal of weapons with a returning DeAndre Hopkins and Chigoziem Okonkwo, as well as newly acquired Calvin Ridley and Tony Pollard. He has the potential to be a pleasant surprise this year if he takes even just a slight step forward. The University of Kentucky product presents sleeper appeal in superflex and best-ball formats as a QB2 with upside.

Will Levis Cleaning Up Technique, Mechanics

Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis is likely headed toward a make-or-break season in 2024. The Kentucky product was not a first-round pick, and head coach Brian Callahan was not a part of the staff when he was selected in the 2023 NFL Draft. So far, the soon-to-be 25-year-old has made improvements this offseason. "Levis changed things with his base, tweaking his footwork. He's trying to get the ball out better, and cleaner, with improved technique," Titans beat reporter Jim Wyatt wrote. "He's getting on the same page with his new receivers. In the six practices open to media, Levis was charted at completing 37 of his 57 attempts (64.9%) in 7-on-7 periods. He had some good days this offseason and others that served more as learning experiences." Levis should have an improved offensive line in Year 2 after the team drafted Alabama tackle JC Latham with the No. 7 overall pick and signed former Broncos center Lloyd Cushenberry III. He'll also have Calvin Ridley and Tyler Boyd to throw to along with DeAndre Hopkins, so the organization is trying to put the pieces together for him to be successful.

Will Levis Takes Part In Tuesday's Practice

Tennessee Titans second-year quarterback Will Levis (foot) looked confident in organized team activities on Tuesday during 7-on-7 periods, going 7-for-10 on the day. Levis dealt with a foot injury late in his rookie season in 2023, but it was never considered a serious injury, and he looks to be 100 percent healthy for offseason workouts as he heads into his sophomore campaign in 2024. The former second-rounder last year out of Kentucky had his fair share of struggles in his first year in the NFL in a run-first offense, but under a new coaching staff that should place a much bigger emphasis on the air attack and with plenty of new weapons in the passing game, Levis remains one of the more intriguing young QBs with upside. He's more attractive in dynasty/keeper leagues still, but he should also be in play as a QB2 with upside in superflex formats.

Titans Still Believe In Will Levis As Their Starter

According to NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe, the Tennessee Titans still believe in quarterback Will Levis as their starter, and one of their top priorities this offseason is getting him receivers. It remains to be seen if general manager Ran Carthon drafts one of the top three wideouts -- Marvin Harrison Jr., Malik Nabers, or Rome Odunze -- at No. 7 overall in the first round of the 2024 NFL draft. The Titans could also use an NFL-high $75 million-plus in salary cap space to go after a top veteran in free agency. They could also do both to help support Levis. The 24-year-old had an up-and-down first year in the NFL in 2023 with 1,808 passing yards, eight TDs and four picks in nine starts, but now he has an offensive-minded head coach in Brian Callahan and should get some shiny new receiving weapons to boost his fantasy upside this offseason.

Will Levis Inactive For Season Finale

Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Will Levis (foot) is officially inactive for the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Levis missed Week 16 due to a sprained ankle but returned in last week's loss to the Houston Texans and injured his foot early in the contest. Even if Levis was able to play this weekend, the Titans decided earlier this week that veteran Ryan Tannehill would make the start under center at home in what is expected to be his final game with the organization. With the 24-year-old Levis out, Malik Willis will serve as Tannehill's backup to close out the year. Levis did enough in his rookie season to at least put himself in the competition to start in 2024, throwing for 1,808 yards on 255 pass attempts with eight touchdowns and four interceptions, but at best, he'll be a QB2 target in fantasy leagues this fall.

Will Levis Questionable For Week 18

Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis (foot) remained limited during Friday's practice. He is officially questionable to play in Week 18, though head coach Mike Vrabel already announced that Ryan Tannehill will draw the start in what could be his final game as a Titan. If active, Levis will be the backup, keeping him off the fantasy football radar. Assuming he doesn't take a snap on Sunday, Levis will finish his rookie campaign having completed 58.4 percent of his passes for 1,808 yards, eight passing touchdowns, one rushing touchdown, and four interceptions.

Will Levis Returns To Limited Practice

Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Will Levis (foot) was limited in Thursday's practice after being listed as a non-participant on Wednesday. Levis missed the Week 16 game with an ankle sprain, only to return in last week's loss to the Houston Texans while injuring his right foot early in the game. It's not an overly serious foot injury, so the 24-year-old is trying to get through it in practice this week in order to play in one more game in his rookie campaign. If the Titans play it safe and hold him out, veteran Ryan Tannehill will get the start in what is expected to be his final game in a Titans uniform. Neither QB will be particularly attractive from a DFS perspective if they play in Week 18 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Levis has shown more upside but has also been incredibly inconsistent with 1,808 passing yards, eight touchdowns and four interceptions in his nine starts.

Will Levis Doesn't Practice Wednesday

Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Will Levis (ankle, foot) did not practice with the team on Wednesday. Levis returned in last week's loss to the Houston Texans after a one-game absence due to an ankle sprain, but he attempted just six passes in Week 17 before injuring his right foot and never returning. It's an annoying but not serious foot injury for Levis, but with the Titans already out of playoff contention, they could choose to play it safe and sit the rookie. If Levis isn't cleared to play, veteran Ryan Tannehill would make another start in what is expected to be his last game with the Titans. Whoever starts under center for Tennessee to close out the regular season will be an uninspiring QB2 choice for fantasy managers still playing for something in deep superflex leagues.

Titans Non-Committal On Will Levis' Status

Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said he doesn't know whether rookie quarterback Will Levis (foot) will be able to practice on Wednesday. Levis tweaked his ankle in Week 15 and didn't play in Week 16, but he returned in last Sunday's loss to the Houston Texans only to make an early exit due to a foot ailment. The 24-year-old is improving, but if he isn't ready for the Week 18 game on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars, veteran Ryan Tannehill would make another start under center. If the second-rounder from Kentucky does return to practice this week and play this weekend, he'll be a low-end QB2 option for fantasy managers still playing for something in superflex leagues. Levis has shown some glimpses of excellence in his first NFL season, but mostly he's been inconsistent in nine starts, completing 58.4% of his passes for 1,808 yards, eight touchdowns and four interceptions.

Will Levis Won't Return In Week 17

Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis (foot) has been downgraded to out for the remainder of Week 17 versus the Houston Texans. He had initially been listed as questionable. The rookie signal-caller finishes Sunday's game having completed just two of six passes for 16 yards while also taking one sack and losing a fumble. It has been an injury-riddled year for Tennessee's quarterback room, which has seen Levis, Ryan Tannehill, and Malik Willis all attempt passes this year. Tannehill will take over as the Titans' quarterback for the rest of this week.

Will Levis Questionable To Return With A Foot Injury

Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Will Levis (foot) is questionable to return to Sunday's Week 17 game against the Houston Texans. Levis was injured on a strip sack, which led to a Texans defensive touchdown during the second quarter, and was slow to get up. He went to the blue medical tent and eventually went to the locker room. Ryan Tannehill is currently in the game for the Titans. The team should provide another update on their rookie quarterback at halftime.

Will Levis Gets In Full Practice On Friday

Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis (ankle) was able to get through another full practice session on Friday. This is great news as it appears the rookie quarterback is in line to start against the Houston Texans in Week 17. Levis sat out last week's game due to a nagging ankle issue, but that appears to be behind him. The Titans will be glad to have Levis back, but his fantasy outlook isn't too great for this week. Levis has looked sluggish lately and shouldn't be considered anything more than a low-end QB2 for this upcoming matchup.

Dec 29, 2023 9:33 PM EST


Will Levis Expected To Start On Sunday

Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Will Levis (ankle) is expected to start for the team in Week 17's contest versus the Texans on the road in Houston on Sunday. The writing was on the wall for this to be the case when Levis returned to a full practice on Wednesday after missing the Week 16 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The 24-year-old reportedly was moving around well in practice earlier this week, but he's also still dealing with some pain, so fantasy managers should expect some of his mobility to be limited when he takes on the Texans and their underrated defense this weekend. Levis has shown glimpses of being a solid franchise QB for the Titans in his first NFL season, but he's been far too inconsistent with limited receiving weapons to be trusted by fantasy managers as anything more than a low-end QB2. Veteran Ryan Tannehill will head back to the bench in Week 17.

Dec 29, 2023 2:14 PM EST


Will Levis Gets In Another Full Practice

Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Will Levis (ankle) was able to get through another full practice session on Thursday. The rookie quarterback is working his way back from an ankle injury that held him out of their last contest. The good news is that Levis has been able to get through two straight practices without any issues. Barring any setbacks, Levis should suit up for the Week 17 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Fantasy managers should consider Levis a low-end QB2 for this game.

Dec 28, 2023 9:58 PM EST


Will Levis A Full-Go On Wednesday

Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Will Levis (ankle) was a full participant in practice on Wednesday. Levis isn't pain-free after spraining his ankle in Week 15, but he's feeling much better and is on track to make another start in Week 17 versus the Houston Texans on Sunday. Veteran Ryan Tannehill threw for over 200 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions in the Week 16 loss to the Seattle Seahawks, but he's set to go back to holding a clipboard on the sidelines if Levis is cleared to play this weekend. Since making his NFL debut in Week 8, Levis has gone 147-for-249 for 1,792 yards, eight touchdowns and four interceptions in eight games started. He's shown flashes of being the team's franchise QB but needs to get more consistent. Levis will be a low-end QB2 option in superflex leagues against Houston if he plays on Sunday.

Dec 27, 2023 7:59 PM EST


Titans Expect Will Levis To Practice Wednesday

Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel expects rookie quarterback Will Levis (ankle) to be able to practice on Wednesday. Levis suffered a right-ankle sprain in Week 15 and did not take part in the Week 16 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The 24-year-old first-year signal-caller is likely to be limited in practice on Wednesday, but it would be a good step toward a possible return this Sunday in a rematch against the division-rival Houston Texans on the road. And if Levis is cleared to play later this week, he's likely to take the starting gig back from veteran Ryan Tannehill. In his first start since Week 6, Tannehill went 18-for-26 for 152 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Levis will be a low-end QB2 option for fantasy managers if he returns in Week 17.

Dec 27, 2023 3:47 PM EST


Will Levis Will Try To Practice Wednesday

Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis (ankle) is expected to try to practice on Wednesday. Levis missed his team's Week 16 loss to the Seattle Seahawks with an ankle sprain but he is apparently going to try to get back onto the field for a Week 17 showdown against the Houston Texans. Head coach Mike Vrabel told reporters that Levis is feeling better this week. That being said, Levis' participation in practice over the next three days will be a good indication as to whether he will be able to take the field this weekend. Stay tuned.

Dec 26, 2023 9:07 PM EST


Will Levis Ruled Out For Week 16

Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of the Week 16 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. As expected, Levis will take a seat while he continues to nurse an ankle issue. The rookie signal-caller wasn't able to practice all week, so it's not a surprise to see him sitting out in this game. Veteran quarterback Ryan Tannehill will take over under center for Sunday's game. The change of quarterbacks shouldn't have much of an impact on this offense. Possibly, a small downgrade because Levis is able to do a little more with his legs. Fantasy managers desperate for a streaming option should look at Tannehill as a possible QB2.

Dec 24, 2023 11:53 AM EST


Will Levis Unlikely To Play In Week 16

Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis (ankle) is not expected to suit up for the Week 16 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. The rookie quarterback suffered an ankle injury during last week's loss to the Houston Texans. He missed most of practice this week until getting in a limited session on Friday. It's unlikely that the Titans push Levis onto the field when he's clearly not 100 percent healthy. That being said, Ryan Tannehill should be under center for favorable matchup against the Seahawks secondary. Tannehill should have some QB2 appeal for this weekend's slate.

Dec 23, 2023 9:02 PM EST


Will Levis Questionable For Week 16

Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis (ankle) is questionable to play against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday. He was trending in the wrong direction after missing practice on Wednesday and Thursday, so it's somewhat promising to learn that the Titans have left the door open for him to play. With that said, the rookie's relatively mediocre stats this season make it difficult to trust him in fantasy football. The same goes for Ryan Tannehill, who would draw the start if Levis is unable to suit up.
