2025 Fantasy Outlook
It may not have registered on the seismic scale when the Packers acquired Willis from the Titans late last August, but the move proved to be a stroke of genius, as he was forced to fill in for an injured Jordan Love shortly thereafter and led Green Bay to two early-season wins. Willis more than held his own in a couple other extended appearances, and when it was all said and done he completed a sterling 74.1 percent of his passes, racked up four scores and turned the ball over only once. Willis again will fill the backup role behind Love in 2025, and while Green Bay will certainly hope to lean on him less, the team shouldn't be too concerned if it has to. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Leads two drives
Willis completed three of six passes for 50 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Saturday's 20-7 preseason win over the Seahawks.
ANALYSIS
Willis started in the absence of Jordan Love (thumb) and played with the majority of Green Bay's top skill-position players. His longest completion went for 39 yards to Matthew Golden, and he later capped the same drive with a one-yard touchdown toss to Romeo Doubs. Willis also displayed some inconsistency as a passer, as he overthrew Malik Heath for an interception to end the Packers' first drive. Willis will enter the season as the backup to Love.

Willis' potential to be a starting quarterback in the NFL has seemingly come and gone. In addition to drafting Will Levis in 2023, the Titans also added Mason Rudolph as a free agent this offseason. That puts Willis in the position to be inactive as the third quarterback in most games in 2024. In order to stick in the league beyond his rookie contract, he'll need to improve a number of areas in his game, most importantly his accuracy from the pocket.
