Quiet sophomore season
Willis completed four of five passes for 74 yards during the 2023 season with the Titans. He added five rushes for 21 yards.
ANALYSIS
Willis appeared in only three games during the season, the latest of which came in Week 8. His only pass attempts came in Week 6 in relief of Ryan Tannehill, and he otherwise spent much of his season as the third-string quarterback. With Tannehill's tenure in Tennessee almost certainly over, Willis may enter the 2024 campaign as the backup to Will Levis (foot).

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Week 8 action confirmed
Willis appears set to share quarterback duties with Will Levis in the Titans' Week 8 game against the Falcons with Ryan Tannehill officially ruled out due to his high ankle sprain, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Head coach Mike Vrabel had already informed reporters Tuesday that the plan was to play both Willis and Levis if Tannehill was ultimately ruled out. Willis and Levis split reps in practice this week and spent extra time with the receivers in meetings as well. Davenport confirms neither player has been informed which one will take the first snap of the game, but it's worth noting that while Willis has 66 career pass attempts over 10 NFL games, Levis has yet to make his first regular-season appearance as a pro.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
It would be drastic to say that Willis' chance to be a starter in the NFL is already gone, but his rookie season wasn't positive. After being projected as a first-round pick in the 2022 draft, he slipped to the third round before Tennessee selected him. Willis spent much of his rookie campaign as the backup to Ryan Tannehill, though he did appear in eight games and made three starts. In those appearances, he averaged only 4.5 yards per attempt and had three interceptions with no touchdowns. Even his significant rushing ability didn't translate, as he accrued 123 total rushing yards with only one TD. Willis is now in danger of slipping to third on depth chart after the Titans selected Will Levis early in the second round of April's draft.
