NASHVILLE, TN — When the Tennessee Titans drafted Will Levis, many saw him as a project quarterback with potential, but few predicted the seismic shift he would bring to the organization’s identity. Now entering his second NFL season, Levis isn’t just developing—he’s redefining what it means to wear two-tone blue in Nashville.
Armed with one of the strongest arms in the league and fearless confidence in the pocket, Levis is transforming Tennessee’s offense from a conservative, ground-and-pound identity to a modern, vertical attack built on explosive plays.
Numbers Don’t Lie: Levis Is Elite Already
According to Pro Football Focus (PFF), Levis put up historic rookie numbers in 2024:
•Deep Throw Accuracy (20+ yards):88.2 grade — among the top of the NFL, even when compared to veteran elite passers.
•Overall Rookie QB Grade:90.6 — the highest ever for a Titans rookie and one of the best PFF grades by any rookie quarterback in recent memory.
Those aren’t just numbers; they’re proof that Levis has taken command of the Titans offense in a way that few young quarterbacks ever do.
From Doubt to Dominance
Coming out of Kentucky, Levis faced criticism about consistency, mechanics, and decision-making under pressure. By the time his rookie campaign closed, those doubts were silenced. With highlight-reel throws, back-shoulder lasers, and game-winning drives, Levis elevated the Titans from a rebuilding narrative to serious playoff contenders heading into 2025.
More impressively, he did it with a depleted offensive line and a receiving corps that lacked true star power. His ability to deliver under duress shows not just talent—but leadership.
Reshaping the Titans’ Identity
For over a decade, the Titans built their football DNA on defense and Derrick Henry’s bruising ground game. Now, with Levis under center, the Titans are evolving into a pass-first, aggressive offense, blending old-school toughness with new-school aerial firepower.
With new offensive weapons, including standout rookie receivers and improved protection schemes introduced by head coach Brian Callahan, Levis has the franchise positioned for a full offensive renaissance in 2025.
NFL Playoff Contenders?
Despite a rough 2024 season overall, Levis gave the Titans hope—real hope—for the future. Analysts now project Tennessee to be a dark horse playoff threat in the loaded AFC, with Levis leading the charge. The playoff buzz isn’t just local; NFL insiders across the league are acknowledging that Tennessee finally has its quarterback of the future.
Former Titans legend Eddie George even chimed in:
“That kid’s different. He’s got that fire, that leadership. With Will under center, the Titans are back in the fight.”
What’s Next?
With a full offseason of preparation, a healthier roster, and a front office aggressively adding talent, 2025 looks like Will Levis’ breakout campaign.
No longer viewed as just a prospect, Levis is now the centerpiece of the Titans’ new identity:
Bold. Explosive. Fearless.
Tennessee’s future? It’s wearing No. 8.
The Will Levis Era is officially here.
