In what was a dark year for the Tennessee Titans, rookie quarterback Will Levis shined bright, which injected some much-needed hope into the fan base.
Levis exploded onto the scene in Week 8, throwing for 238 yards and four touchdowns in his debut against the Atlanta Falcons, which led to his being named the starter for the rest of the season.
While Levis didn’t have another game like that the rest of the way, the fact that he showed as many flashes as he did despite the mess of a situation around him was enough for the Titans to move forward with him.

Make no mistake, Levis still has a lot to improve in his overall game, but the Titans also have to put him in a better position to succeed.
That begins with beefing up what was one of the worst offensive lines in the sport last year, and adding weapons to a receiving corps. that was unreliable, at best, in 2023.
Thankfully, the Titans have a pair of top-40 picks and plenty of cap space to build around Levis, and if general manager Ran Carthon can push the right buttons and improve those two groups, we’ll have a much better idea of where Levis stands in his second year.
