Negative signalProjection

Willis struggling with completion %, YPA, and TD%; needs simpler play-calling.

Willis is struggling significantly in his first season with the Dolphins. His completion percentage is at the bottom of the league, his YPA is 6.9 (below the Mendoza line), and his TD% is abysmal with only 1 TD on the season despite 4 games played. The source notes he is missing throws, doesn't look comfortable or confident, and is pushing it—trying to do too much and panicking. While the source acknowledges he has limited pass catchers and has faced four top-8 passing defenses, Willis must show significant improvement. The source advocates for simpler play-calling with quick completions and out-routes to build rhythm and confidence.
