Arguably one of the most difficult things for NFL prospects to endure on draft night is not hearing your name called when expected. After many were predicting former Kentucky star quarterback Will Levis to be selected among the first few picks, the big-arm talent has fallen out of the top ten and it’s hard to predict when his fall will stop.
In an injury plagued season in 2022, Levis passed for 2,406 yards and 19 touchdowns, while adding two rushing touchdowns on the ground.
After seeing Bryce Young, CJ Stroud and Anthony Richardson go in the top five, Levis is still sitting in the green room waiting for his name to be called.

Levis has prototypical size at 6’ 4” and 229 pounds as well as a strong arm, but his accuracy is a question.
It’s anyone’s guess at this point which team will finally end his slide and invest in the former Wildcat.
One thing is for sure is that Levis is officially the one player who is falling significantly further than anyone was anticipating.
