Head coach Brian Callahan named Levis the team’s starting quarterback in the Titans’ season finale against the Houston Texans.
“We’ll let him [Will] take a shot to finish the season on a good note, and play well,” Callahan said about starting Levis via Titans.com. “That’s the idea.”
Callahan mentioned that the plan is to work in Rudolph at some point. However, Levis will stay in if he continues to play well.
“If a guy is playing well, I’d like for him to keep playing,” Callahan said. “But they will rotate, and Mason will play at some point. I am almost certain he’ll play at some point in the first half. It won’t be like a half-and-half thing. But if Will is playing well and he is feeling it, I’d like him to keep playing.”
Levis and Rudolph have had moments, though the former has been a turnover machine.
Levis has thrown for 1,916 yards, 12 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions. Meanwhile, Rudolph has thrown for 1,460 yards, nine touchdowns, and nine interceptions.

The Titans enter Week 18 with a 3-13 record. More importantly, the Titans hold the No. 2 spot in the NFL Draft.
Tennessee would be better off losing than winning. A loss secures the No. 2 pick, with an outside chance at No. 1. With a win, the Titans could drop to as low as No. 7.
The Titans host the Texans (9-7) on Jan. 5 at 1 p.m. ET.
