NFL karma has a way of evening out. Months after quarterback Will Levis had to endure the humiliation of sitting unpicked through the first round of the NFL draft, he enjoyed an NFL debut with some useful allies and a squishy opponent.
Levis made his NFL debut Sunday in relief of injured Ryan Tannehill, and led the Titans to an inspiring, effective 28-23 victory over Atlanta. He ended the day 19 of 29 for 238 yards and four touchdowns and zero interceptions. Levis kept veteran-level composure throughout the afternoon and may have changed the conversation around a team that's deservedly fallen out of the AFC playoff conversation the last two seasons.
Levis barreled onto the NFL’s radar earlier this year as a cannon-armed weirdo out of Kentucky best known for social-media-friendly gimmicks like eating banana peels and dumping mayonnaise in his coffee. But his build and his arm led starry-eyed draft analysts to fall in love with him, so much so that he had a brief stint as the odds-on favorite to go No. 2 overall.
