When the Tennessee Titans traded quarterback Malik Willis to the Green Bay Packers, it was viewed as a positive move for Willis. The Packers received a young quarterback with upside that could potentially solidify their back-up role and Willis will have a chance to grow without the pressure he faced in Tennessee.
Transitioning to a new team can be challenging, but in this case, Willis will have a former Titans teammate near him in the locker room. On Wednesday, the Packers were awarded kicker Brayden Narveson off waivers.
While speaking with the media for the first time in Green Bay, Willis found out about the waiver claim and his reaction was priceless.
Judging from his reaction, Malik Willis was 1) unaware #Packers claimed Titans kicker Brayden Narveson and 2) awfully happy to be reunited with his teammate from this offseason. pic.twitter.com/MeMJ96Ly9X

After an impressive preseason, there was talk that the Titans may try to keep the young kicker from NC State on the practice squad, but now, he joins Willis with a chance to build his career with a new team. He will now have a chance to prove himself during the regular season and create more priceless moments for the Packers.
