Tennessee Titans QB Will Levis to miss entire 2025 season due to shoulder surgery, with Cam Ward stepping up as potential starter.
In a blow to Tennessee Titans fans, quarterback Will Levis has announced he’ll be sidelined for the entire 2025 season due to a necessary shoulder surgery. The team confirmed the news just days before training camp, emphasizing their support for Levis’ focus on long-term health.
Levis, who has been battling discomfort from a right shoulder injury sustained last year and aggravated in 2024, made the tough call after consulting with doctors and his team. The Titans praised his professionalism during the offseason, noting his growth as a leader and expressing optimism about his eventual return to form.
Drafted in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft, Levis has shown flashes of potential with nearly 3,900 passing yards and 21 touchdowns over 21 games. However, the team’s 5-16 record in his starts reflects the challenges he’s faced on the field. Now, with Levis out, the spotlight shifts to the Titans’ No. 1 pick in the 2025 draft, Cam Ward, who seems poised to take the reins as the starting quarterback for Week 1. Brandon Allen and Tim Boyle round out the current QB roster, but all eyes are on Ward to steer the ship.
This development raises questions about the Titans’ trajectory for the upcoming season, but the organization remains committed to building around young talent. For now, fans can only hope Levis returns stronger than ever in 2026.

Well, folks, Will Levis just threw a curveball—straight to the operating room! Missing 2025 feels like the Titans are punting on fourth down, but hey, maybe Cam Ward will be the Hail Mary they need. Let’s just hope Levis’ shoulder rehab doesn’t turn into a full-contact sport with his couch!
