The Tennessee Titans finally won a football game for the first time since before Thanksgiving of last year after they beat the Minnesota Vikings on Saturday night, 24-16.
This win could mostly be attributed to a fantastic running game led by running backs Tyjae Spears and Julius Chestnut, and quarterback Malik Willis.
Sadly, when it came to their passing game, this wasn’t the all-around great performance we were hoping for.
Willis was forced to play the entire game after a mysterious lower-body injury sidelined rookie signal-caller Will Levis. Levis did dress up as the emergency backup, but Willis ended up taking almost every snap under center aside from a few gimmick plays that went to Mason Kinsey.
Therefore, unlike last week when this article broke down both Willis and Levis, this article is going to solely revolve around the performance of the former on a day in which he had the chance to run away with the backup quarterback job.
Sadly, that was hardly the case and instead Levis’ chances might have actually gotten better without even playing.
Hopefully, the Kentucky product can go next week because he has the chance to snatch this job with a solid performance, unless Willis bounces back in emphatic fashion.
Let’s dive right into the good and bad from Willis’ evening.
