Falcons Week 8 preview: Lineups, injury report, how to watch

The Atlanta Falcons (4-3) are off to their best start in years as they head into Sunday’s game against the Tennessee Titans (2-4). Falcons head coach Arthur Smith returns to the organization where he made a name for himself as offensive coordinator.

The Titans won’t have starting quarterback Ryan Tannehill, and they’re expected to play both Will Levis and Malik Willis in Week 8. Levis, a rookie out of Kentucky, will reportedly get the start, according to ESPN.

From broadcast info to injury updates, here’s everything you need for Atlanta’s Week 8 matchup in Tennessee.
