Titans list Ryan Tannehill as QB1 on depth chart

NASHVILLE -- The Tennessee Titans' quarterback controversy has been the center of attention in Nashville over the last few weeks.

With Ryan Tannehill recovering from a high ankle sprain, rookie quarterback Will Levis has stepped in and performed admirably for Tennessee. Levis had a historic rookie debut against the Atlanta Falcons in which he threw four passing touchdowns.

While the fanbase might be ready for Levis to be named Tennessee's full-time starter, Titans head coach Mike Vrabel has been completely non-commital. Vrabel told Titans media on Friday that the coaching staff would discuss the depth chart over the weekend and provide an update on Tuesday.

On the latest depth chart, updated as of November 5th in the Titans' game release for the game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, a depth chart still shows Ryan Tannehill as the Titans' QB1.

"I think with any position, you look for who gives you the best opportunity to win, where you're at and what's best for the football team," said Vrabel last week when asked about the impending QB decision. "So, we'll have those conversations over the weekend. We'll see where Ryan's (Tannehill) health is. We'll see where some different guys are as (far as) health. But we're always just trying to figure out what gives us the best chance to win, with what we can do to win a football game, especially one next week that's on the road."

Vrabel is scheduled to speak with Titans media at 1 p.m. CST on Tuesday afternoon to provide more clarity on the quarterback hierarchy.
