Will Levis, the quarterback of the Tennessee Titans, has seen ups and downs ever since his NFL debut. He had a great one as he achieved four touchdowns and the Titans were victorious in the game against the Atlanta Falcons with a concluding score of 28-23.
According to the Tennessee Titans, the rookie acknowledged the fact that he is still learning and growing. The quarterback also wants his team to have a deeper insight into himself through his guidance.
As per the Titans, Levis shared, “At the very least, if you want to be a good leader you have to be someone who leads by example and works hard and does the right things and is able to be someone that people can come to and ask questions to,”

“I feel like in everything that I’ve done, I’ve always wanted to be at the forefront, in the (driver’s) seat. I think I have that innate ability to bring others with me. It’s a tough job to have, but I like having the tough jobs. It’s just kind of how I’m wired, I guess, and I have to keep finding ways to be a better leader.”
The quarterback posted four touchdowns, 699 yards, and two interceptions in his first three NFL appearances. His passer rating was 80.7, and he had a total of ten sacks in three games.
The next game for the Titans will be against the Jacksonville Jaguars and regarding the upcoming match, Levis, expressed, “It’s a big one,”
“We talked today that it’s only our second division game, and we still have all these division games left. As we see it, it’s still wide open. We have to take it one day, one game at a time.”
“… We know how much the (division) games count. Obviously, every game is going to be a bloodbath, but it just seems like, for those division games, you have to step up and bring your best to the table or you’re going to get kicked in the mouth.”
The quarterback also admitted that there is room for his abilities to improve. However, the Titans are also expected to do a protective job securing their quarterback, as this is a two-way road. In the lost game to the Buccaneers, the quarterback was sacked four times and had thirteen quarterback hits, as per the Titans.
Levis further shared, “I have to be a leader,”
“My leadership role has to step up. I have to instill confidence in these guys, regardless of who it is, whatever five is out there, that they know I have my full trust in them.”
“I have to do a better job as a leader of bringing them along.”
