Rookie Will Levis Promoted to Titans Starting Quarterback, Replacing Injured Veteran Ryan Tannehill

Rookie's rapid rise from third-string to starting quarterback due to impressive performances during injury coverage, producing four touchdown passes and only one interception across two starts.

Rookie Will Levis has been promoted to starting quarterback for the Tennessee Titans, taking over from injured veteran Ryan Tannehill.
Titans' head coach, Mike Vrabel, praised Levis for his impressive performance, having produced four touchdown passes and only one interception in two starts.
Despite being the 33rd pick and stationed as No. 3 quarterback, Levis rose to the occasion after an injury to Tannehill, showcasing his abilities in games against the Ravens and the Falcons.
Levis' professional debut was remarkable with a 28-23 win over Atlanta where he threw a touchdown pass in each quarter, matching historical records set by Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback Fran Tarkenton in 1961 and Marcus Mariota in 2015, both Titans' No. 2 picks.
Wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine highlighted Levis' capacity to commandeering the huddle and recite extensive play calls without a wristband, demonstrating his readiness and potential in leading the Titans.
