Overview
- Tennessee cut Will Levis during final roster reductions and he went unclaimed on waivers, making him an unrestricted free agent without an active-roster deal.
- The Titans have set their quarterback room around Cam Ward as the starter, Mitchell Trubisky as the primary backup, and Hendon Hooker on the practice squad, a configuration that eliminated Levis’s roster spot.
- Levis missed the 2025 season after right-shoulder surgery and produced uneven results earlier, with 3,899 passing yards, 21 touchdowns, 16 interceptions and 10 lost fumbles over his two seasons played.
- Titans GM Mike Borgonzi publicly praised Levis’s professionalism and wished him well after the move, framing the decision as a roster choice rather than a personal rebuke.
- With no team adding him to an active roster, Levis now faces an uncertain market where he may need a practice-squad role or a change of scenery to rebuild value, and his long-term NFL prospects are at risk.
