Will Levis’s Friends and Family Were So Emotional Celebrating His 4-TD NFL Debut

Will Levis had a standout debut for the Titans in Week 8. Replacing the injured Ryan Tannehill, the rookie threw four touchdown passes in a 28–23 win over the Falcons.

Helping lift Levis’s dazzling performance was receiver DeAndre Hopkins, who caught three scoring passes. Overall, the Kentucky product completed 19-of-29 passes for 238 yards while hitting six different receivers for completions. 

CBS cameras found Levis’s family and friends in the stands at Nissan Stadium, who were in a celebratory mood. Check out the group hugs and high-fives:

Levis got to celebrate with his loved ones in the stands after the game ended, a punctuation mark on a great day for him.

Fans loved seeing those closest to Levis enjoy his memorable NFL debut.

Levis’s breakout effort led plenty of Titans fans to predict that he’ll be Tennessee’s starting quarterback from here on out, even when Tannehill recovers from his injury. 

Levis sure looks like he earned another start with his performance. A national TV audience may get a look at the rookie in Week 9. Up next for the Titans is a Thursday night matchup with the Steelers
