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 starting quarterback needs to deliver.

The second-year pro finished a strong preseason with another good outing on Sunday.

In a 30-27 win over the New Orleans Saints on the road, Will Levis impressed during his two series with the offense. The former second-round pick led his team on two scoring drives completing 7-of-8 passes for 118 yards

“It was good,” Levis told reporters after the game. “We did what we wanted to out here, to get us amped up and ready for Week One. We were clean with our operation, from top to bottom. I’m proud of how the guys went out there and played. And it was awesome to see guys go out there and make some plays.”

Will Levis impressed in every outing this preseason. Now we will get to see what the Kentucky product can do as a full-time starter when the Titans open the season on the road facing the Chicago Bears in Week 1.

Bryce Oliver shines for the Tennessee Titans

Bryce Oliver spent three seasons at Kentucky from 2018-20 recording eight receptions for 125 yards. The South Florida native entered the transfer portal following the 2020 season and landed at FCS Youngstown State. Oliver spent three seasons with the Penguins and had an epic career.

During his time in Youngstown, Bryce Oliver recorded 147 receptions for 2,065 yards and 26 receiving touchdowns. That gave him a shot at getting an extended NFL tryout. Oliver signed a deal as an undrafted free agent with the Tennessee Titans and made a big splash on Sunday.

Making the 53-man roster could be difficult but a strong performance could lock up a spot on the Titans practice squad for the former Kentucky wide receiver.
