Will Levis draft profile: Why Kentucky QB is under pressure at NFL Combine

Will Levis enjoyed another impressive season with the Kentucky Wildcats in 2022. The quarterback led the team to a fourth-place finish in the SEC standings with a 7-6 record.

Levis' draft profile will also have a number of NFL teams keeping a close eye on his performance at the 2023 NFL Combine. The 23-year-old is a solid runner with impeccable arm strength. Moreover, he is intelligent on the ball and his size will certainly be a factor.

Despite his ability, Levis has had a few accuracy issues in the past. He doesn't always seem to make the right decisions when put under pressure.

• Position: Quarterback
• Height: 6′-3″
• Weight: 232 pounds
• School: University of Kentucky

ESPN analyst Dan Orlovsky believes that Levis is the man under pressure at this year's NFL Combine. The former NFL quarterback has insisted that although the Wildcats star has the talent, his decision-making has been poor at times.

“The talent that coach (Mark) Stoops is stalking about, it doesn’t match the tape,” Orlovsky said.

“And you have to find the reason of, the offensive line is awful, and their receivers, there’s more plays when they’re not open than when they’re open. I want to hear him tell me what his thought process was.”

Nonetheless, Levis will take part in the on-field Combine drills on Saturday. He will be eager to prove that his raw talent can translate to a path in the NFL.

He will also face some stiff competition from the likes of C.J. Stroud, Bryce Young and Stetson Bennett as the other quarterbacks take the field this weekend.
