The Tennessee Titans finally got their first win Monday night with a 31-12 victory over the Miami Dolphins behind Mason Rudolph, who took over from an injured Will Levis in the first quarter.
With head coach Brian Callahan declaring Levis the starter once healthy, the question becomes when exactly that will be. After receiving an MRI on his ailing shoulder, there is some clarity.
Will Levis has an AC sprain of his throwing shoulder. Wouldn’t necessarily play this week. Should be OK for Indy after bye but will still likely have some pain. #Titans

According to reports, Levis suffered an AC joint sprain in his right shoulder. The injury should not cause him to miss an extended period, and the Titans expect him to be available after their Week 5 bye. Of course, all of this is speculation at this point, and Levis could be limited or show signs of continued discomfort as practice resumes next week for their Week 6 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts.
If he can’t go, Rudolph would get the first start of his Titans career. Against Miami, Rudolph proved he was in control of the offense. However, it was a run-heavy approach after the Levis injury and that was enough against a depleted Dolphins roster.
One thing is certain: All eyes will be on the Titans when they release their first Week 6 injury report on Wednesday.
