Tennessee Titans starting quarterback Will Levis did not come out for his team’s third drive Monday at Miami after he appeared to injure his throwing shoulder.
Levis appeared to be hurt after he dove for yardage on a scramble during Tennessee’s second drive. Levis was seen on the “Monday Night Football” broadcast grimacing as he threw on Tennessee’s sideline midway through the opening quarter, and when the Titans took over with 4:14 to play, his backup, Mason Rudolph, replaced him.

Levis had thrown an interception earlier in the game while completing three of his four passes.
Rudolph’s entrance turned the matchup into one led by backup quarterbacks. Tyler Huntley earned his 10th career start in place of Tua Tagovailoa, who has been sidelined for a head injury. Huntley committed a turnover when his backward pass was dropped, leading to a fumble recovered by the Titans.
Titans coach Brian Callahan didn’t commit to a starter at quarterback for the second half.
Callahan said “we’ll see” when he was asked who would start the second half. He added that it would depend on whether Levis was physically ready to go.
At the start of the third quarter, Levis stood on the sidelines with his helmet on, but Callahan still opted for Rudolph, who led the team to a 31-12 victory.
