Titans

Titans QB Will Levis made his NFL debut last season and showed glimpses of promise through his first starts. Tennessee HC Brian Callahan detailed his relationship with Levis and how he’s trying to maximize Levis’ potential.

“My relationship with [Will], his relationship with me and [offensive coordinator] Nick [Holz] and [quarterbacks coach] Bo [Hardegree] is going to be really a critical factor in our success,” Callahan said, via ESPN’s Turron Davenport. “And I wanted to make sure that he feels like he has input and ownership into that process. And we can kind of build it from there and hope that he gives me the same kind of feedback I need from him — particularly when you’re talking about plays and what you like and how you like it.”

“We don’t really hold back. Point out what’s wrong, what needs to be better, how it can be better. It’s always going to be about being critical and being honest, taking the criticism for what it is and then offering a solution to how it can be better.”
