Malik Willis with the tremendous scramble for six

Titans rookie quarterback Malik Willis delivered a touchdown on a tremendous scramble away from pressure.

Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Malik Willis got the start in the team’s first preseason game, and he delivered a moment like the many that saw him become one of the more intriguing quarterback options in the 2022 NFL draft.
