Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis has taken a lot of flack during his first two NFL seasons. While he has certainly underperformed, fans have often gone too far criticizing him for his reckless turnovers as well as his endorsement deal with Hellman's mayonnaise.
Unfortunately, the writing seems to be on the wall for him in Tennessee already, as the franchise just selected quarterback Cam Ward with the No. 1 overall pick. Ward will almost certainly be the starter for the Titans in Week 1, which means that Levis will either serve as a backup or be moved before the season.
On Wednesday, the official NFL schedules were released for all 32 teams. The social media groups for each franchise have taken pride in recent years by revealing the schedule in unique ways, and oftentimes, opposing teams and players are the butt of the joke.
The Indianapolis Colts, a hated AFC South rival, poked fun at Levis during their reveal. In the video, they depicted a bachelorette party in Nashville being on a bus that runs over Levis, spilling the mayonnaise that he was eating onto the sidewalk.
While these jokes are typically in good, clean fun, the Colts crossed the line a number of times. They came under fire for several aspects of their video, prompting them to take it down.
The Titans will have a chance to avenge these petty jokes when they take on the Colts at home in Week 3. Then, they'll go on the road for their second matchup in Week 8.
NFL Executive Has Strong Response to Backlash Over Titans Schedule
One of the most exciting players to watch in the NFL in 2025 will be Tennessee Titans quarterback Cam Ward. However, it'll be difficult for the general football audience to see him in action.
On Wednesday, the NFL revealed the 2025 regular season schedule for all 32 teams. Something that stuck out was that the Titans don't have a single primetime game.
That was met with some backlash, as many couldn't understand why the NFL wouldn't want to showcase the No. 1 pick to a national audience. NFL vice president of broadcast planning and scheduling Mike North has come out to explain why Tennessee didn't get any primetime games.
We kind of have this adage that you play your way into prime time," North told Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports. "You don't draft your way into prime time. So the Titans are one of the teams that don't currently have a national television window assigned. But that's what things like flexible scheduling are for. And if you look down the stretch for the Titans, they play San Francisco in Week 15, Kansas City in Week 16. They've got the same opportunity every other team has to play their way into a national window."
The Titans have missed the playoffs in three straight seasons and were the worst team in the NFL in 2024. Considering Tennessee is one of the smaller markets that the NFL has a team in, it shouldn't come as too much of a surprise that they didn't get any primetime games.
