Will Levis missed the Tennessee Titans’ Week 16 loss after suffering an ankle injury against the Houston Texans in Week 15, but with a rematch against the Texans scheduled for Sunday, Levis’ return is imminent.
Levis is set to return as the starter, according to head coach Mike Vrabel, after participating in all three sessions this week. Levis has appeared smooth and capable throughout the week, with no apparent limitations.

Levis’ return was not the only good news from Friday’s injury update. Vrabel ruled out zero Titans on Friday because every player on the roster was present during Week 17’s final practice session.
The Titans will still be missing a number of starters who are already on injured reserve, but they will have nearly a full roster of active players, which is unusual this late in the season. However, the Titans are not the only healthy team.
The Texans sent a junior varsity team to play the Titans in Week 15, with backups at quarterback, wide receiver, and edge rusher. Houston will be significantly healthier in this matchup.
C.J. Stroud will be back as the starting quarterback, but he will be joined by wide receiver Nico Collins, offensive tackle George Fant and linebacker Blake Cashman while it also seems like that rookie edge rusher Will Anderson could return as well.
