According to Turron Davenport of ESPN, Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis will start in Week 18 against the Houston Texans. While Levis will start the game, it was reported earlier this week that the Titans would give both him and Mason Rudolph snaps in this contest. As a result, this makes them difficult to project from a fantasy standpoint. However, seeing Levis get the start may suggest he sees a slight edge in opportunities. Over the past two weeks, the team has given starting duties to Mason Rudolph. Over Levis' past four complete games, he averaged 225.6 passing yards per contest with a 7:2 TD:INT ratio. Fantasy managers should look for an alternative option this weekend, as both will carry a limited ceiling given their unknown snap count on Sunday.
Mason Rudolph, Will Levis Will Both Play In Week 18
Tennessee Titans head coach Brian Callahan said that both quarterbacks Mason Rudolph and Will Levis will play in the Week 18 regular-season finale against the division-rival Houston Texans this coming Sunday. It means that fantasy managers still playing for something in two-QB superflex leagues should ignore both Rudolph and Levis this weekend. Tennessee chose to bench Levis after their Week 15 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals in favor of Levis, who hasn't been a noticeable upgrade. Rudolph has completed 64.62% of his 65 pass attempts with 445 yards, three touchdowns and four interceptions in two losses to the Colts and Jaguars. Levis, the team's second-round pick in 2023, has been too inconsistent in his second NFL season, tossing 12 TDs and 12 interceptions while also being sacked 40 times in 11 starts. There will obviously be very little upside for both QBs to close out the year.
Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis (shoulder), who was listed as questionable for the Week 16 tilt on Sunday against the division-rival Indianapolis Colts, is active and will serve as the backup to starter Mason Rudolph. After another poor showing in the Week 15 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals in which he threw three more interceptions, the Titans made the move to bench Levis in favor of Rudolph in Week 16. It's unclear if Rudolph will start all three of the final three games of the regular season, but Levis' fantasy stock in superflex and dynasty/keeper leagues is obviously trending down toward the end of the year. In 11 starts in his sophomore season, Levis has completed 63.7% of his passes for 1,916 yards, 12 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. Heading into his third season in the NFL, he could be battling for a backup job in 2025.
Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis (shoulder) is expected to serve as the team's backup quarterback in Week 16 at Indianapolis, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The second-year quarterback appeared on the injury report on Friday and is listed as questionable to play, but should be active. The Titans elected to bench Levis and start Mason Rudolph prior to the injury, so the news shouldn't have much impact on fantasy lineups this week.
Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis (shoulder) was benched in favor of Mason Rudolph for the Week 16 contest against the division-rival Indianapolis Colts, and now he's questionable to serve as the backup on Sunday after being limited in Friday's practice with a right-shoulder injury. It's unclear exactly how serious Levis' shoulder injury is, but if the Titans don't feel he's healthy enough to be Rudolph's backup, Trevor Siemian would be elevated from the practice squad to Tennessee's 53-man active roster for Sunday's contest. The 25-year-old improved his completion percentage from 58.4% of 63.7% in his sophomore year, but overall he was way too inconsistent and struggled with turnovers in his 11 starts, throwing for 1,916 yards, 12 touchdowns and 12 interceptions while also taking 40 sacks and fumbling seven times. Depending on what the team does at QB in the offseason, Levis could be a backup in 2025.
The Tennessee Titans are planning to make a switch at quarterback for the Week 16 contest against the division-rival Indianapolis Colts, with Mason Rudolph taking over for second-year signal-caller Will Levis, according to a source. Levis threw three interceptions and lost a fumble in the Week 15 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals and was benched in favor of Mason Rudolph after going 8-for-12 for 89 yards. The 25-year-old has mostly struggled in 2024 and has also missed several games due to injury. In his 11 starts, Levis completed 63.7% of his pass attempts for 1,916 yards, 12 touchdowns, 12 interceptions (league-high four pick-sixes) and five lost fumbles while being sacked 40 times. While his completion percentage improved slightly over last year, Levis' overall touch and decision-making skills need more improvement. It's a bad sign for his future with the franchise that he's being benched with three weeks left in the regular season.
Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis has been benched and replaced by Mason Rudolph during the third quarter of Sunday's Week 15 game against the Cincinnati Bengals. The second-year quarterback led two touchdown drives early in the contest, but then the Titans turned the football over four times. At the time of his departure, Levis had completed eight of 12 passes for 89 yards, zero touchdowns, and three interceptions. Rudolph saw a little bit of action when Levis was injured earlier in the year, compiling a 59.4 percent completion rate, five total touchdowns, and five turnovers. Fantasy managers should stay tuned to see if Levis returns to the starting role next Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts, or if Rudolph wins the competition.
Will Levis Dealing With Shoulder Injury, Fails To Throw TD Pass In Loss To Jaguars
Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis (shoulder) completed 19 of 32 passes for 168 yards with zero touchdowns or interceptions in a 10-6 loss to Jacksonville on Sunday. After showing much promise over the past few weeks against some tough defenses, Levis reverted back to early season-form in this one. Tennessee struggled to move the ball against one of the worst defenses in the NFL and came up short on two fourth-quarter drives to win the game. It was a horrific performance by Levis, and this Titans offense managed only 5.3 yards per attempt. It's worth noting that Levis was hit hard at the end of the first half, potentially aggravating his AC joint sprain. The same injury kept Levis out for multiple weeks earlier in the year. That could have affected his performance in the second half and may impact his status against the Bengals for next week. Even if he is good to go, Levis is back to his lower-end QB2 ways after this performance.
Will Levis A Fine Streamer For Week 14 Vs. The Jaguars
Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis faces the reeling Jacksonville Jaguars this weekend in a divisional battle. The young quarterback has shown marked improvement since returning from injury, finishing as a top-20 quarterback each of the past four weeks, including one top-10 finish. The bar was extremely low for the Kentucky product, as he had failed to reach even that threshold in four out of five weeks to begin the year. While it's not pretty all of the time, Levis has thrown for seven touchdowns to two interceptions since Week 10 and looks much more comfortable in this offense. Unfortunately, the Titans are No. 1 in the league in sacks allowed during this time, but it's promising that Levis has still managed to put up decent numbers instead of this issue. This week, Levis faces a Jaguars defense that is 31st against opposing quarterbacks, which puts him as a potential streamer with six teams on the bye. It's possible that Tennessee opts to go with a more ground-heavy offensive approach, given Jacksonville's struggles in that department. Still, Levis at home against an atrocious secondary should give fantasy managers a nice floor.
Will Levis Airs It Out In Ugly Loss To The Commanders
Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis attempted a season-high 37 passes in Sunday's 42-19 defeat to the Washington Commanders. The Titans fell behind, 28-0, before Levis threw a touchdown just before halftime. He completed 18-of-37 (48%) of his passes for 212 yards and two touchdowns and had no turnovers. The former second-round pick also lost three yards on two rushing attempts. Levis and the Titans slid to (3-9) with the bad loss, but they do have a very favorable schedule ahead. With six teams on byes next week, Levis will be a solid QB2 against Jacksonville at home in Week 14 after throwing multiple touchdowns in three of his last four games.
