For fans hungry to watch their favorite pro football team, the preseason begins Thursday night for most of the NFL. Currently, there are four former Liberty players on NFL rosters, all fighting for a spot on the 53-man roster during the preseason.
QB MALIK WILLIS
Willis was drafted in the 3rd round of the 2021 draft by the Tennessee Titans. He solidified himself as Ryan Tannehill’s backup but had a bit of an up and down rookie season. The Titans drafted Will Levis this year and now Willis finds himself once again competing for a 53-man roster spot during the preseason.
