Will Levis Crashes Into Sideline Worker
In the waning moments of the first quarter Titans quarterback Will Levis was pushed out of bounds, and was forced out of bounds by Colts defensive back Jaylon Jones. Levis, who has quickly gained a reputation for his animated landings, ran into one of the sideline workers who fell almost immediately upon contact. The employee remained on the ground before being carted off the field wearing an aircast.

The viral fiasco led to tons of fan reactions on social media.
"I've said it so, so many times now. The NFL, NBA, and college football/basketball need to expand the distance between the playing surface and the sidelines. The cushion they have currently isn't enough," one fan said on X, formerly known as Twitter.
"Not cool from Levis, should've checked on him," another fan added.
Brian Callahan Gets Honest on Calvin Ridley
Wins have come at a premium for the Titans as they have a record of just 1-3 sitting in third place in the AFC South. A large reason for their offensive struggles has been the lackluster play of star wide receiver Calvin Ridley. To this point, Ridley has just one touchdown on the season and is on pass to have the fewest receiving yards of his career. Head coach Brian Callahan says it's his job to find ways to put Ridley in a better position to thrive as a playmaker.
"I've got to do a better job of finding ways to get Calvin (Ridley) the ball. We need to use his speed and explosiveness more. Just get it in his hands every which way we can," Callahan said.
Callahan also noted that he has urged the star wide receiver to exercise patience while he figures out new methods to get him the ball.
"Just be patient, we'll get it to you (Ridley) is a team player," Callahan said when asked what he has been telling Ridley amid a down year. "But like those guys, they want their part of the action and want to be able to help."
