Will Levis looks sharp in preseason start

Former Kentucky quarterback Will Levis is entering his first full season as a starter for the Tennessee Titans. There is a lot of new in Nashville with head coach Brian Callahan and multiple free agent additions joining Levis in the offensive meetings rooms. But for the Titans to surprise in the AFC South, their second-year quarterback needs to deliver.

Will Levis looked sharp in a 17-13 home win over the San Francisco 49ers on Saturday night. The former second-round pick completed 4 of 5 passes for 35 yards and added a rushing touchdown. The biggest highlight came when Levis found new addition Calvin Ridley over the middle for a big gain.

Levis played two series and led the Titans to two touchdown drives before being pulled. The quarterback looked comfortable in Callahan’s scheme as hype will continue to build for the young prospect with a rocket arm.

The Titans will host the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday for another preseason game. Tennessee will open the season on the road when they face No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears on Sept. 8. Will Levis will be looking to improve from his rookie season when he led the Titans to three wins over nine starts. The Kentucky product completed 58.4 percent of his passes for eight touchdowns and four interceptions as a rookie.
