Will Levis’s Friends and Family Were So Emotional Celebrating His 4-TD NFL Debut

Fans think Levis earned the starting QB job in Tennessee.

Will Levis had a standout debut for the Titans in Week 8. Replacing the injured Ryan Tannehill, the rookie threw four touchdown passes in a 28–23 win over the Falcons.

Helping lift Levis’s dazzling performance was receiver DeAndre Hopkins, who caught three scoring passes. Overall, the Kentucky product completed 19-of-29 passes for 238 yards while hitting six different receivers for completions. 

CBS cameras found Levis’s family and friends in the stands at Nissan Stadium, who were in a celebratory mood. Check out the group hugs and high-fives:

Levis’s breakout effort led plenty of Titans fans to predict that he’ll be Tennessee’s starting quarterback from here on out, even when Tannehill recovers from his injury. 

They deserve to. He’s their new starter

The Titans should probably let him start the rest of the year

We will never see Ryan Tannehill again

Levis sure looks like he earned another start with his performance. A national TV audience may get a look at the rookie in Week 9. Up next for the Titans is a Thursday night matchup with the Steelers.
