Rookie Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis is set to get his first NFL start in Week 8 following the injury to Ryan Tannehill.
The former Penn State signal-caller is unlikely to run the show on his own, however, as Malik Willis could share the snaps. Will, who made plenty of odd faces during the first round of this year’s NFL Draft, was back at it again when quizzed on the possibility of sharing the responsibility with Malik
While being interviewed by a reporter in the locker room, Levis claimed to be fine with splitting the workload against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday as he has some experience in that department. His face told a very different story, though.
Check him out below:
ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler has reported that Willis “will have packages” and could play up to 25 percent of the snaps. Will does not seem all that keen on sharing but will have very little choice in the matter.
The first-year QB has had a tough time since that embarrassing episode on draft night and could certainly do without having to share his first start. Even so, he could force his coaches to change their minds if his first few drives bring results.
