Willis, a third-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, has become a vital player for the Titans with Will Levis and Mason Rudolph on the roster. The trade allowed the Titans to trim their roster before the cut deadline and the Packers to acquire a talented backup quarterback.
After some speculation about whether Green Bay would find another quarterback for its 2024 roster behind Jordan Love, the team found its answer in Willis.
