NFL analyst: Titans’ Will Levis may take time to come around

Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis has struggled to start 2024. He’s been sacked seven times, thrown three interceptions, and fumbled the ball over the first two games. While there seemed to be improvement in some areas from Week 1 to Week 2, Levis is still making awful mistakes at crucial times in a game.

Levis knows he has things to work on, and head coach Brian Callahan is working with him and the other coaches to correct his struggles. However, one NFL analyst says that this may take some time.

Levis has made two mind-boggling mistakes that significantly contributed to losses. The first was a wild interception that cost the Titans in Week 1. Levis’ mistake on Sunday — when he inexplicably flipped the ball backward toward a teammate while falling to the ground, resulting in a momentum-killing fumble — was arguably worse. Getting Levis to put this habit to bed will be an uphill battle for Titans coach Brian Callahan, who was visibly upset after Tennessee’s loss to the Jets. Levis said he has to “rewire his brain” to not make bad decisions in those situations. It may be an issue that takes a while to fix. — Turron Davenport

If Levis truly has to ‘rewire his brain,’ then this could definitely take some time. Habits take time to form and stick, and they take even longer to unlearn. Levis’ habits aren’t great right now, and it’s good that he’s working on things and the coaches are helping, but how much time are the Titans willing to give him before they give Mason Rudolph a shot?
