Malik Willis beats former team as Packers roll Titans

Packers, Titans

Malik Willis threw for a touchdown and ran for another on Sunday as the Green Bay Packers never trailed in a 30-14 win over the Tennessee Titans in Nashville, Tenn.

Playing against the team that traded him last month for a 7th-round draft choice, Willis completed 13 of 19 passes for 202 yards and added 73 yards on the ground in the best game of his three-year NFL career.

Green Bay (2-1) also got three field goals from kicker Braydon Narveson, who was in training camp with Tennessee. The Packers dominated in total yardage, outgaining the Titans 378-237.

Tennessee quarterback Will Levis completed 26 of 34 for 260 yards with two touchdowns. The second-year signal-caller absorbed eight sacks and tossed two interceptions as the Titans fell to 0-3.

Willis set the tone right away, hitting a pair of 30-yard passes on his team’s first drive and cashing it in by running for a 5-yard touchdown less than three minutes into the game.

Tennessee got off to a promising start offensively, matching Green Bay as Levis found Nick Vannett for a 1-yard score at the 7:15 mark.

But after Narveson connected on a 21-yard field goal, Levis made the big mistake, tossing an interception that Jaire Alexander returned 35 yards to make it 17-7 with 58 seconds left in the first quarter.

Narveson upped the lead to 20-7 at halftime with a 26-yard field goal, and Willis hit Emanuel Wilson for a 30-yard touchdown with 8:33 left in the third quarter for a 27-7 cushion. A penalty on the Titans during a missed field goal extended the drive.

Levis found DeAndre Hopkins for an 11-yard strike at the five-minute mark of the fourth to draw Tennessee within 13 but it couldn’t get closer. Narveson capped the scoring on a 47-yard field goal with 3:34 remaining in the game.

Tennessee rushed for only 33 yards on 11 carries.
