Tennessee quarterback Will Levis struggled in his third NFL start, connecting on 19 of 39 passes for 199 yards with one interception. He was sacked four times and faced pressure throughout the game due to issues with the Titans’ offensive line.

The Buccaneers’ defense was dominant, holding the Titans to just 209 total yards. Titans running back Derrick Henry was limited to only 24 yards on 11 rushes.
