Willis, 25, could be the backup to Jordan Love,
who became the Packers' starter last season and signed a
four-year, $220 million contract during training camp. Behind
Love are Sean Clifford, a second-year player taken in the fifth
round in 2023 out of Penn State, and Michael Pratt, a rookie out
of Tulane drafted in the seventh round in April.
Projected as a possible first-round pick in the 2022 draft out
of Liberty, Willis went in the third round as the third
quarterback selected overall. He has played in 11 games in two
seasons, starting three with a 1-2 record.
Willis has completed 35 of 66 passes (53 percent) for 350 yards,
no touchdowns and three interceptions. He also rushed 42 times
for 144 yards and one touchdown.
He was third on the Titans' depth chart behind incumbent starter
Will Levis, 25, a second-round pick in 2023, and veteran Mason
Rudolph, 29, who signed as a free agent in March.
