The Tennessee Titans have benched rookie quarterback Will Levis and turned to veteran Ryan Tannehill as they search for a long-term solution at the position.
Will Levis has struggled this season and it has become clear that he is not a franchise quarterback at this point in time. This is just the latest disappointment in a long line of disappointments for Levis this season. He has dealt with poor play, an injury, and now a benching. The Tennessee Titans will have a very busy offseason ahead of them. After thinking that they might have figured out the long-term quarterback picture last year, they will be back to the drawing board.
Levis could still end up developing into being a starting quarterback for Tennessee. However, with the team trying to compete, he's clearly not that kind of player right now. In the offseason, the Titans will have to figure out how to fix the problem. Do they use their first-round pick on a quarterback? Should they look to sign or trade for a proven quarterback? As for Rudolph, he is being given another opportunity to prove himself. On the season, he has completed 63 percent of his pass attempts for 1,015 yards, six touchdowns, and five interceptions. He has also scored a touchdown on the ground. Those aren't great numbers either, but Callahan and the Titans clearly believe that he gives them the best chance to win
