Titans Waive Former Second-Round Pick QB Will Levis

The Tennessee Titans have placed quarterback Will Levis on waivers, clearing the path for him to become a free-agent this week. Multiple reports confirm the move, and league insiders note that Levis expressed a desire to leave the organization. ESPN analyst Jeremy Fowler reported on social media that “Levis wanted out,” reinforcing the player’s own reported wishes.

Levis was selected by the Titans in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft and appeared in 21 games, starting 16 of them. Over his tenure he compiled a 5-16 starter record, throwing for 3,899 yards, 21 touchdowns and 16 interceptions. The Titans’ decision to draft quarterback Cam Ward with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 draft signaled a shift in the franchise’s quarterback plans, prompting the team to move on from Levis.

In comments delivered through the Titans’ media channel, Levis said he has grown significantly since entering the league and now possesses a higher level of confidence. He emphasized that his motivation is no longer tied to external approval but to becoming the best version of himself. Levis believes his recent tape demonstrates that he is “a dang good quarterback” and is ready to prove his value to another team.

With his waiver expected to clear, Levis will be free to negotiate with any NFL club. Analysts note that he will need to earn a spot on a new depth chart, similar to former Titans third-round pick Malik Willis, who eventually secured a starting role with the Miami Dolphins after serving as a backup elsewhere. Levis’ next opportunity will hinge on how teams assess his recent performance and confidence boost.
