Despite a few circumstances that caused Levis to drop out of the 2023 NFL Draft, he still heard his name called on Day 2. The Tennessee Titans selected Levis to fill the void left by Ryan Tannehill’s constant inconsistency as their starting quarterback.

When a Tannehill injury presented an opportunity, Levis took it to heart.

Levis, who is now most likely going to be Tennessee’s long-term starter, has a message for supporters who despise him only because they support the Tennessee Volunteers and he attended Kentucky.

Levis also stated that he will welcome all Tennessee supporters, indicating that he probably doesn’t give a damn about people who think less of him for attending Kentucky during his college career—especially in light of the Vols’ impressive performance under head coach Hendon Hooker. Vols supporters were hoping that the Titans would select that player in the 2023 selection; they were very disappointed when Levis was selected instead.

Expect Levis to be a Titan for the foreseeable future, despite the negative sentiments of some fans.

The Tennessee Titans’ fan base was split on the day they traded up to choose Kentucky quarterback Will Levis in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft. This was because many Titans supporters are also Volunteers supporters from their home state.

Following an unexpected rookie season in which he emerged as the Titans’ starting quarterback, Levis had a message for those same supporters who either didn’t think highly of him or didn’t like that he played for the rival Wildcats.

You should stay on that hill if you’re a Vol fan and you don’t like me just because you like Vol. Don’t alter; don’t make a transition right now,” Levis said. “But I’m open to all fans of the Titans with open arms, and, hopefully, at least since I’ve been drafted, I’ve been able to change some people’s opinions.”
