Will Levis

The 33rd pick in last year’s draft, Levis began the season as the No. 3 QB in Tennessee, only to take the starting job Week 8 when Ryan Tannehill was injured. Levis threw four TD passes in his first start … and four more in his remaining eight games. The accuracy concerns that sank his draft stock proved real -- he finished last in the league in on-target (64.7) and completion (58.4) percentages. Part of the issue was over-reliance on his top-tier arm. No one threw deep at a higher rate than Levis, who sent 19.6 percent of his attempts beyond 20 yards downfield. His 10.6-yard average target depth also led the league, easily. Levis likely will throw more short passes and improve his completion percentage this season. The other issue -- one that’s harder to fix -- is a lack of touch. Levis has one of the best fastballs in the league, but that’s all he has. He’s less adept at lofting the ball or taking something off when needed. Still, he should be helped by significant upgrades at wide receiver after the Titans signed wide receivers Calvin Ridley and Tyler Boyd to join DeAndre Hopkins. RB Derrick Henry is gone, replaced by Tony Pollard, which could also work in Levis’ favor in the likely event new coach Brian Callahan is less reliant on the running game than the previous regime.
