An interesting development this morning.
Will Levis will undergo season-ending shoulder surgery tomorrow. This news came out of left field, at least for me, after Levis was seemingly a full participant in all of the team activities this summer. The Tennessee Titans released this statement (via Jim Wyatt):
“After consulting with doctors and his representatives, Will Levis has decided to undergo shoulder surgery that will sideline him for the entire 2025 season. We support his decision to focus on his long-term health. He approached the offseason with professionalism and showed clear growth as a leader. We remain confident in his full recovery.”
This ends any speculation that the Titans will trade Levis, at least for now. He will spend this season on injured reserve rehabbing the shoulder. What his status will be on the team will be determined at some point next offseason.
The Titans don’t necessarily need to go out an add a quarterback as they already had four on the roster. Cam Ward, the number one overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft was always going to be the starter. Earlier in the offseason the Titans signed both Tim Boyle and Brandon Allen. Those two will compete for the backup job.
