Ryan Tannehill benched by Titans, Will Levis assumes starter role

The Tennessee Titans are making a change at quarterback, promoting rookie Will Levis to the starting position according to head coach Mike Vrabel on Tuesday. The move benches veteran quarterback Ryan Tannehill. Tannehill started the season as the team’s top passer, but an ankle injury in Week 6 has had him sidelined. The Titans selected Levis with the first pick of the second round of this year’s NFL Draft and, after initially starting the year in the third position on the depth chart, it now appears he will be the team’s starter for the remainder of the year.
