Tennessee Titans place quarterback Will Levis on waivers
The franchise has moved to release former starter Will Levis, adding him to the NFL waiver list as the team reshapes its quarterback depth chart.
The Tennessee Titans have officially placed quarterback Will Levis on waivers, effectively ending his stint with the organization. The decision, confirmed by league insiders, signals a shift in the team’s quarterback roster as they evaluate options for the upcoming season.
Levis, who previously earned a starting role with the Titans, will now be available for any of the 31 other NFL clubs to claim within the standard 24‑hour waiver window. If no team submits a claim, he will become a free agent and can sign with any franchise that offers a contract.
The move comes amid broader roster adjustments across the league, where teams frequently use waivers to manage depth, address injuries, or free up salary‑cap space. For the Titans, releasing Levis opens a spot for younger talent or a veteran backup, depending on how the coaching staff chooses to proceed during training camp and preseason.
While the Titans have not released detailed comments, the waiver filing aligns with typical NFL procedural timelines. Players placed on waivers are required to clear the list before they can negotiate new deals, and their contract terms are generally transferred to the claiming team.
Observers note that the quarterback market remains fluid, and Levis’s experience as a former starter could attract interest from teams seeking depth or a developmental project. As the waiver period concludes, the next steps for Levis will hinge on whether another franchise claims him or he opts to explore free‑agency opportunities.
The waiver action underscores the fluid nature of NFL rosters, where performance, fit, and strategic considerations drive personnel moves throughout the year.
