In the world we live in when it comes to sports can just about anybody break news at any time and it can cause a massive shift everywhere on social media.
The most recent example of that came from a Reddit Post where a person noted that former Kentucky Wildcats quarterback QB Will Levis was +4000 to go No. 1 overall in the NFL Draft. The unknown person then stated that Levis has allegedly told his friends and family that the Carolina Panthers will take him first overall.
That single post had DraftKings updating their odds from +4000 to +400 for that to happen.
Levis was asked about that on Wednesday, but the way he answered it still had people wondering if it was true.

“I don’t want to speak on it too much. But just don’t believe everything you read on the Internet,” Levis said.
Much of the quarterback speculation for this year’s draft has concerned the order in which the presumed top two passers, Bryce Young and C.J. Stroud, will hear their names called.
Will Levis remain an intriguing option for a number of teams set to pick near or at the top of the draft. Nobody saw him going first overall.
Levis transferred to Kentucky from Penn State in 2021 and quickly made an impact on the team, showcasing his impressive skills in both throwing and running the ball. In his debut game for the Wildcats, Levis threw for 367 yards and four touchdowns, setting the stage for a standout season. He played a key role in Kentucky’s offense during the 2021 season, starting all 13 games and helping the team to a 9-4 record and a win in the Citrus Bowl over the Iowa Hawkeyes. He was named the game’s Most Valuable Player after passing for 233 yards and two touchdowns and rushing for 64 yards and another touchdown.
Levis is known for his strong arm and ability to make plays with his legs, which makes him a dual-threat quarterback. He also has good size, standing at 6’3″ and weighing around 230 pounds.
Whoever snags him up will likely have a stud at QB for many years to come.
