Titans QB Will Levis will be undergoing season-ending surgery on the right shoulder injury he sustained early last year before further aggravating it later in the season.

Levis has elected to have the procedure to ensure long-term health, based on medical opinions, one that should help him be ready for the 2026 season.

He is, in the words of a source, “dedicated to return to be able to compete at the highest level possible.”

Statement from the Titans read: “after conducting with doctors and his representatives, Will Levis has decided to undergo shoulder surgery that will sideline him for the entire 2025 season.

“we support his decision to focus on his long term health, he approached the off season with professionalism and showed clear growth as a leader.

“We remain confident in his full recovery.” It added

With Will Levis out for the year, No. 1 overall pick Cam Ward is now poised to become the Titans’ starting quarterback, despite the fact that the team has not named him its starter.

The Titans other backup QBs are veterans Brandon Allen and Tim Boyle. Ward now shapes up as the Week 1 starter at Denver.
