Titans' Will Levis on draft fall, family spotlight, first months in NFL
Tennessee Titans rookie Will Levis talked about how he was able to stay ‘sane’ during his draft freefall.
The Tennessee Titans were facing nearly impossible odds, down 14 points with under 3 minutes to play, against the Miami Dolphins on Monday.
Somehow, Titans rookie quarterback Will Levis orchestrated a nine-play 75-yard touchdown drive and completed the 2-point conversion to get within a touchdown of the Dolphins’ lead with 2:40 left to play. The defense then forced a three-and-out and Levis was able to lead another touchdown drive that ended with a Derrick Henry 4-yard touchdown run.

"Everybody thought this was going to be another Miami-Broncos 70 points put on us," Titans linebacker Arden Key said after the game. "But we don’t care about the outside noise."
Levis also had a message for NFL fans after the game.

"Awesome. We knew we had an opportunity to do something special tonight on national television. Probably our last prime time game. Hope America liked what they saw," he said.
