The Tennessee Titans’ starting quarterback Ryan Tannehill will not play in the team’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday night as he continues to battle through a right high ankle sprain. Titans coach Mike Vrabel wanted to monitor the starting quarterback’s progress throughout the week before coming to a final decision.
Tannehill was injured during the Titans’ Week 6 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. As a result, he wore a cast on his injured foot for a few days before switching over to a walking boot.
Rookie Will Levis will fill in for Tannehill at quarterback on Thursday. In his NFL debut in the 28-23 win over the Atlanta Falcons last week, Levis completed 19 of his 29 pass attempts for 238 yards and four touchdowns.
