Former Kentucky football quarterback, Will Levis, faced disappointment during Day 1 of the 2023 NFL Draft as he went undrafted during the first round (USA Today). One potential cause for his unexpected fall may be attributed to a toe injury that he faced during the season (CBS Sports). Despite this setback, there is still hope for Levis as he is projected to potentially be picked up by teams on Day 2 of the draft (New York Post).
Levis has been considered a potential top-10 pick for the NFL draft, however, his slide from the first round may have come as a surprise for many (Athlon Sports). His prospects of going No. 1 rose after an anonymous post, causing a shift in the NFL draft market (ESPN, USA Today).
It is yet to be seen which team will pick Levis up during the draft, but potential teams that may want to end his slide include the Detroit Lions and the Pittsburgh Steelers (PFF). Nonetheless, Will Levis seems to be keeping his head up despite the unexpected turn of events, and hopefully, his perseverance will pay off in the end.
