2022 Fantasy Outlook
A third-round pick in this year’s draft, Willis is a dual-threat QB with a rocket arm and elite speed
for the position. It's because of those attributes that some pegged Willis as a first-rounder. He
fell, though, because scouts questioned his inconsistent mechanics and processing issues, which led to inaccuracy (61.1 completion percentage) and interceptions (12) in his second of two seasons at Liberty. Willis will have time to refine those skills this season as the backup to Ryan Tannehill in Tennessee. If the rookie is forced into action, the outlook isn’t great. Not just because he needs time to develop, but because the Titans traded A.J. Brown and released Julio Jones and replaced them with Robert Woods (coming off an ACL tear), rookie Treylon Burks and TE Austin Hooper. Any hope for Year 1 fantasy value likely requires Tannehill missing time and Willis taking a bunch of carries in an extremely run-heavy offense. Read Past Outlooks

Will be backup QB on Saturday
Willis will operate as the backup quarterback behind Joshua Dobbs for Saturday's regular-season finale against Jacksonville, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
With Ryan Tannehill (ankle) on injured reserve, Willis drew the start Week 16, but he threw two interceptions and was benched for Week 17. While the Titans lost to Dallas last Thursday, Vrabel said he was encouraged by the way Dobbs played and is confident in the veteran's ability. Willis is a rookie third-round pick and figures to have a future in Tennessee, but barring an injury, it appears like he'll be relegated to bench duties for the remainder of the 2022 campaign.
