Just when you thought the offseason drama was over, the Tennessee Titans dropped a bombshell of epic proportions. On the very eve of training camp, the team announced Monday that quarterback Will Levis will undergo season-ending shoulder surgery, a stunning development that immediately reshapes the entire landscape of the 2025 season.
One day before players report to camp, the Titans' entire quarterback plan for 2025 was thrown into chaos.
The news came as a complete shock. Will Levis, who had been the subject of persistent trade speculation throughout the offseason, is now off the table and off the field. The procedure is scheduled for Tuesday, the same day his teammates are set to report to Ascension Saint Thomas Sports Park. For Levis, it's a devastating blow that puts his future with the franchise in serious jeopardy. For the Titans, it's a crisis that erases their depth chart at the most important position in sports.
With Levis officially sidelined for the year, the question immediately becomes: what's next? The remaining quarterbacks on the roster now face an unexpected and immense opportunity to seize control of the offense. The front office, meanwhile, is under intense pressure. Do they trust the in-house options, or do they scour the trade market and free agency for a veteran arm? Every practice rep, every preseason snap just became infinitely more critical. The search for a starting quarterback is now the undisputed, number one priority.
While the Levis news dominated the day, the business of building a roster continued. The Titans made a move in the backfield, signing running back Jordan Mims and waiving Tyrion Davis-Price. This swap, though minor in comparison to the QB situation, is a clear signal that no roster spot is safe and competition will be fierce from day one. As camp opens, battles at running back, receiver, and in the secondary will still be crucial, but they will all unfold under the massive shadow cast by the uncertainty at quarterback.
As the Titans report to camp on Tuesday, all eyes will be on the quarterback position. The shocking news about Will Levis has turned a routine start to training camp into a crucible. How the team navigates this crisis, who steps up under center, and what moves the front office makes next will define not just the preseason, but the entire 2025 campaign. Buckle up, Titans fans, this is going to be a wild ride.
