Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) will likely be out Week 8 against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, reports Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
Tannehill injured his ankle in Week 6 versus the Baltimore Ravens and is still sidelined after the bye week. Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said rookie Will Levis and Malik Willis will both play on Sunday if Tannehill is out, but according to Rapoport, Levis is expected to start and be the primary quarterback.
The Titans have the fourth-worst adjusted pass offense in the NFL, according to numberFire’s metrics, so Tannehill's injury may not be a downgrade for DeAndre Hopkins and the offense. The Falcons' pass defense is 20th in our adjusted rankings, but they allow the sixth-fewest FanDuel points per game to wide receivers. Our models currently project Hopkins for 8.3 targets, 4.9 receptions, and 54.3 yards in Week 8.
