Allison Kuch had to take a break from making her viral TikToks to speak in defense of Kentucky’s Will Levis after sliding in the draft.
Rochell, who is the wife of Isaac Rochell, knows what it is like to wait for her better half to get selected as he wasn’t chosen until the seventh round.
It really bothered her to see fans making fun of Will Levis’ for being left in the green room all night as the first round concluded.
She spoke about it on her latest TikTok.
“He ended up not getting drafted in the first round, but you guys, the comments have me absolutely sick,” she said in a video. “The comments definitely showed me how little people understand the NFL. The moment of him going to the draft itself and not getting drafted, instead of people coming at it with sympathy and empathy, they end up attacking him.”
“Do you know how stupid it sounds to get invited to the NFL Draft and say no because there might be a chance you might not get drafted in the first round?” Kuch asked. “That’s stupid.”

Levis found himself becoming the subject of viral memes on social media as cameras became trained on him throughout the night. Every team that passed on him led to cameras looking at him and his family.
He also made headlines days before the draft when a Reddit rumor drastically increased his odds to go No. 1 at multiple sports books, causing a frenzy in the betting world.
Rochell — a defensive end who played at Notre Dame — was selected in the seventh round (225th overall) by the Los Angeles Chargers in 2017. Rochell played with the Colts in 2021 and the Browns in 2022. He signed with the Las Vegas Raiders in December after terminating his practice squad agreement with Cleveland.
Levis did not go in the first round, but the Tennessee Titans selected Levis with the No. 33 pick on Friday. The 23-year-old quarterback is in a good position with the Titans as Ryan Tannehill is unlikely to be back after the 2023 season and Malik Willis has lost the trust and confidence due to his poor play last year.
