Willis was drafted in 2022, as the Titans used the 86th pick on him. On the Titans website, they were doing a Q&A with reporter Jim Wyatt. Here is what one fan asked:
This fan is feeling uncertain about the young QB, and is hoping Wyatt can answer this burning question. Here is what Wyatt replied with:
So, the future of Willis' time in Tennessee is unclear. Even though he has shown improvement this offseason, he is still the third-string guy, so a spot for him on the team is not guaranteed.
During his time in college, Willis earned himself a record of 17-6, 48 passing touchdowns, 29 rushing touchdowns, and 5,176 passing yards. He did all of this in just 2 seasons of starting, as he barely played in his first 2 years.
Last season, in his rookie year with the Titans, Willis played in 8 total games, and started in 3 games due to Ryan Tannehill getting injured. During his short time on the field, Willis ended with a 1-2 record, 1 rushing touchdown, 0 passing touchdowns, and 3 interceptions. It didn't look too good, but he was not given the best chance.
I see Willis becoming a solid QB in the NFL, but he needs to be with a stable team. The Titans are dealing with too many issues and questions when it comes to QBs, so it may be best for Willis to sign somewhere else.
