NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- A promising 11-play opening drive that covered 64 yards to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 9-yard line ended with a thud when defensive lineman Vita Vea sacked Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Will Levis on third-and-goal Sunday.

Levis hopped back up after being thrown to the ground and tossed the ball to the official before straightening his helmet and jogging off the field. The Titans (3-6) had to settle for a 38-yard field goal by Nick Folk and failed to score a touchdown in the 20-6 loss.
