Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis was everything the team could’ve hoped for and more in his NFL debut in Week 8 against the Atlanta Falcons.
Levis finished by completing 65 percent of his passes for 238 yards and four touchdowns in a 28-23 win over the Falcons that improved Tennessee’s record to 3-4.
But his performance was more than just about the box score, as Levis passed the eye test, also, and looked like he had been a NFL quarterback for years with his command of the offense, poise and accuracy.
After his wildly-successful debut, Levis spoke about what it meant to have his family in attendance.
“I had 20-plus friends and family here to celebrate this moment with me,” Levis said, per Jim Wyatt. “Win or lose, I knew they were going to be there to support me… That’s what it’s all about; I’ve got so much love for so many people and glad I’ve got a good circle around me.”
After the game, Levis met his family and friends in the stands:

With a successful NFL debut under his belt, Levis will look to build upon it and keep the Titans on the winning track in a Thursday night game against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9.
