The Titans rookie quarterback Malik Willis continues to show great play-making ability, while also giving his coaches agita by taking unneeded sacks and not reading defenses quickly.
Here we’ll take a look at the workload for Titans rookie Malik Willis in Week 3 of the preseason and how he performed during his reps.

How did Willis perform in Week 3?
Willis made some spectacular plays, including that 50 yard run and a sidearm touchdown pass to Treylon Burks that would have been knocked down if he hadn’t changed his arm angle. It’s worth a look:

Those two plays alone are worth Titans fans getting excited about his future with the team. Ryan Tannehill is the quarterback for this season, but Willis should be the no-doubt starter if Tannehill misses any time.
