Titans waive QB Will Levis, ending his Tennessee tenure

The Tennessee Titans are waiving quarterback Will Levis, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, closing the book on a tenure that never settled into the franchise role the club once envisioned for him.

Tennessee had been open to trading Levis for some time, and in the end both sides move on and Jeremy Fowler of ESPN adds a key detail — Levis wanted out and gets the fresh start he coveted.

Levis, a second-round pick in 2023 out of Kentucky, flashed at times as a starter but inconsistency and a changing roster picture left him on the outside of Tennessee's plans as the club reshaped its quarterback room. His exit is one of the more notable names to hit the wire on cutdown weekend — a former high draft choice who could draw interest from teams seeking a low-cost arm with starting experience. For the Titans, the move clears a crowded depth chart behind starter Cam Ward and signals a clean break from the Levis era.
