Kentucky’s Will Levis announces he won’t play in Music City Bowl, declares for NFL draft

LEXINGTON, Ky. — Kentucky will play its bowl game without star quarterback Will Levis.

Levis, who played through injuries for most of the 2022 season, announced Wednesday he would opt out of the Wildcats’ bowl game in order to focus on returning to 100% in advance of the 2023 NFL draft. Levis is widely projected as a first-round draft pick and one of the top quarterbacks in the draft class.

Kentucky is scheduled to face Iowa in the Music City Bowl on Dec. 31 in Nashville, Tenn.
