Levis will be the third-string quarterback for the Titans under the wing of veteran Ryan Tannehill and second-year pro Malik Willis, but his name has been trending this week for several reasons.
A growing number of real-life NFL players take part in fantasy football and Tennessee Titans rookie Will Levis is no exception.
Leading up to the NFL Draft, the world found out way too much information about Levis when he stated he not only eats entire bananas with the peel, but he puts mayo in his coffee.
That was strange enough to warrant him going undrafted, but the Titans looked past it and selected him anyway. As bad as that was, things have only gotten worse when he revealed what happens to the last-place finisher in his fantasy football league.
Levis says the last-place finisher is required to eat a dozen uncooked hot dogs. He also added that the other members wanted the person who finished last to broadcast the hot dog eating live on Instagram.
“We try to make the loser do something every year. We don’t always get them to do it, but it’s always a fun time,” he told NBC Sports’ Matthew Berry.
“The last one was we had to make him eat a whole pack, a dozen uncooked hot dogs. Go on Instagram Live and eat them in front of everybody. We felt like that was a good one, but he didn’t man up and do it.”

It seems like being in a fantasy football league can be detrimental to your health.
Levis said he’s never finished last, and he’s hoping to keep that streak alive.
As for his career, Levis got the call at No. 33 Overall to possibly be the future of the Titans. He became the first former UK QB to be taken since Andre Woodson in 2008.
Despite the hype around him, he would be the fourth quarterback taken off the board, following Alabama’s Bryce Young — No. 1 overall to the Carolina Panthers, Ohio State’s C.J. Stroud — No. 2 to the Houston Texans, and Florida’s Anthony Richardson — No. 4 to the Indianapolis Colts.
Mock drafts had him going in the top-15, which is why he showed up to the draft room. Instead, he slid out and did not show up on the second day to hear his name called.
Now, he has a major chip n his shoulder….with mayo and coffee.
