Titans’ Will Levis to start vs. Chargers in Week 10

After missing time with an injured shoulder, Titans quarterback Will Levis is set to start in Week 10.

Tennessee Titans starting quarterback Will Levis injured his shoulder early in the first quarter of the Titans’ Week 4 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. He sat the rest of that game and rested over the bye week, but when he returned against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 6, he admitted he wasn’t 100% and his performance suffered because of it.

As such, head coach Brian Callahan has been starting Mason Rudolph while Levis’ shoulder heals. Now it seems his shoulder is good to go, and Callahan says Levis will start in Week 10 against the Los Angeles Chargers.


Asked about how Levis has been through this process, Callahan said, “He’s been good, I think he learned a little bit about himself in the process, learned about how to be honest about how your body feels and when fighting through an injury or when trying to fight through something is detrimental to you and the team as opposed to helping the team by being out there.”

Callahan also admitted that he learned a lot through this process as it’s his first time dealing with it as a head coach.

It’s been a couple of weeks since Levis has seen the field for a game, so it’s natural to wonder if Levis will be rusty when he hits the field. “It’s certainly possible,” Callahan said. “It’s been a couple of weeks since he played so there could be that. I’m hoping that there’s not, but it’s realistic to maybe have a little bit before you get back out there.”

He once again implied that he is being patient with Levis, which probably means this Sunday the Titans will probably look like they did against the Colts, and not like they looked against the New England Patriots. Brace yourselves, Titans fans, it’s going to be a bumpy ride for the rest of the season.
