NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The Tennessee Titans traded up to select quarterback Will Levis in the NFL draft two weeks ago. But it wasn't in the spot that they expected.
To their surprise, and most of the draft world, Levis was available at the conclusion of Day 1 of the draft. When the Pittsburgh Steelers didn't take Levis with the first pick of the second round, Tennessee made an aggressive move to shoot up eight spots from No. 41 to select him.
"He was a player that was highly ranked on our board," Titans general manager Ran Carthon.
