The Atlanta Falcons (4-3) are set to face yet another inexperienced quarterback in Week 8. The Tennessee Titans (2-4) ruled out Ryan Tannehill for Sunday’s game, and are expected to play both rookie Will Levis and second-year QB Malik Willis.
However, Levis is expected to get the start, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler. The rookie is expected to take about 75 percent of the starter reps for Tennessee, per Fowler.
Will Levis will get the start for #Titans and is expected to get the most reps, but Malik Willis will have packages. Could end up being roughly 75-25 as far as play time. https://t.co/c2G4C45QKf

Levis has a ton of arm talent but his inconsistency during his collegiate career at Kentucky caused him to drop to the second round of the 2023 NFL draft.
The Falcons have already played against Bryce Young, C.J. Stroud, Jordan Love and Sam Howell this season. Hopefully, Atlanta can take advantage of Levis’ inexperience in Week 8.
