NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Will Levis remains steadfast in his belief and claims that he feels quite at ease in his second offense within just as many NFL seasons, demonstrating a clear understanding of his role.
Nevertheless, the Tennessee Titans quarterback acknowledges that the outcomes thus far have not been what anyone had hoped for.
The Titans find themselves with a disappointing 1-4 record and currently hold the 31st position in terms of passing yards per game.
This situation is an unfortunate decline from the previous two years under former coach Mike Vrabel, where they were positioned 30th in 2022 and 29th in 2023.

Levis expressed a desire for more opportunities to throw deep passes, which he feels aligns well with his abilities.
This season, his longest throw was a 40-yard touchdown reception to Calvin Ridley during a Week 2 defeat against the Jets.
“We’re still functioning within the offense, and I’m going to continue trusting my observations while executing the passes and plays I deem suitable,” Levis commented.

First-time head coach Brian Callahan, who is also navigating his inaugural season calling plays in the NFL, noted that they are still in the learning phase after five games with Levis at the helm.
“We’re evolving as we progress, identifying what works and what we’ll implement more frequently,” Callahan mentioned.
“It’s a continuous journey; it won’t happen overnight.”

Last week’s performance indicated that there are still significant challenges ahead.
Levis registered a career-low with just 95 passing yards in the Titans’ 20-17 setback against Indianapolis, a team that ranked among the poorest in the league at defending the pass.

Now the Titans are gearing up for a two-game road trip, starting with a match against the Buffalo Bills (4-2) this Sunday.
Levis, who was selected as the 33rd overall pick in 2023 from Kentucky, has not celebrated a victory since December 11 of last year against Miami.
This season, he has thrown five touchdown passes, which is three less than the total in his nine starts as a rookie.
Moreover, he holds a league-low seven interceptions, surpassing last year’s total by three.

In terms of performance metrics, Levis is currently placed 31st among starting NFL quarterbacks with a passer rating of 70.7, and he ranks 30th in passing yards with 699.
During Tennessee’s only victory in Miami, he missed a significant portion of the game, having been substituted by backup Mason Rudolph in the only contest where the Titans surpassed 17 points this season.

Callahan reassured that the organization, after making significant offseason acquisitions, is dedicated to Levis’s development.
Achieving success through the air requires synchronization between all 11 players on the field, including offensive linemen blocking, receivers and running backs executing their routes appropriately, and the quarterback delivering the throw at the right moment.
Callahan indicated that the Titans are currently grappling with the fundamental issue of execution.
“A great deal of time and energy has been put into refining our timing and enhancing our performance, as we recognize the need to improve our passing game,” Callahan stated.

In other news, the Titans have placed safety Jamal Adams on the reserve/non-football injury list as of October 12, a day after ruling him out for their loss against the Colts due to a hip injury.
When asked about the situation following Adams’ one-year contract signing shortly before training camp, Callahan responded, “We are navigating some ongoing matters, so I’ll hold off on that for the time being.”
