Titans' Quarterback Shuffle: What Lies Ahead for Will Levis?
The Tennessee Titans are navigating a quarterback conundrum that has fans buzzing. With the selection of Cam Ward as the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, the writing seemed to be on the wall for Will Levis. Adding fuel to the fire, the Titans recently brought in veteran Mitchell Trubisky as a high-quality backup.
Despite the apparent signals, Titans' GM Mike Borgonzi and head coach Robert Saleh have publicly maintained that Levis is still in the mix for a future in Tennessee. Their recent comments at the league ownership meetings echoed similar sentiments they expressed about T'Vondre Sweat before trading him shortly after the NFL Combine.
So, what's really happening behind the scenes? A recent move might offer some clues. The Titans signed veteran quarterback Hendon Hooker to a one-year deal, making their quarterback room notably crowded with four capable players.
Reading the Tea Leaves: Levis' Future in Question
While it's not unusual for teams to carry multiple quarterbacks during training camp to ensure quality practice reps, the addition of Hooker provides the Titans with strategic flexibility. If the right offer comes along before the 2026 NFL Draft, Levis could be on the move.
Levis, who missed last season due to a shoulder surgery he opted for, is gearing up for the final year of his rookie contract. With Ward and Trubisky seemingly locked in for the 53-man roster, the odds appear stacked against Levis.
Borgonzi and Saleh may continue to publicly support Levis, but the perception that he's trade bait has only intensified since Hooker's arrival. As the offseason unfolds, all eyes will be on how the Titans handle this quarterback carousel, and whether Levis will find a new home before the season kicks off.
