Levis is a candidate to be traded after Tennessee drafted fellow quarterback Cam Ward at No. 1 overall Thursday night, KLTV's Terry McCormick reports.
The pick was expected for some time beforehand, and the Titans likely would've already moved Levis if they got an offer for something like a mid-round pick. The question now is whether they'll trade him for less than that, creating a fresh start for both parties after back-to-back disastrous seasons for the Tennessee offense since Levis was taken 33rd overall in the 2023 NFL Draft. Levis turns 26 in June and hasn't shown much on the field that hints at developing into a legitimate NFL starter, but he does have a strong arm, decent mobility and a prototypical build (6-foot-4, 229 pounds).

Titans' Will Levis: In line to start Sunday
Rotowire
Head coach Brian Callahan relayed Friday that Levis will start Sunday's season finale against the Texans, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Per Wyatt, Callahan said that fellow QB Mason Rudolph also will play in Sunday's contest. Of the two, however, Levis profiles as the higher-percentage Week 18 fantasy dart, with Turron Davenport of ESPN.com and John Glennon of NashvillePost.com suggesting that if Levis plays well Sunday, the snap share could tilt in his favor.

Titans' Will Levis: Set to split reps at QB in Week 18
Rotowire
Titans head coach Brian Callahan said Monday that Levis and Mason Rudolph will both play Sunday against Houston, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports.
Levis was moved to a backup role in favor of Rudolph over the Titans' past two games, but the team has gone 0-2 since the change. Rudolph has somewhat struggled with a 3:4 TD:INT in the pair of contests, so he hasn't done enough to establish a stranglehold on the starting QB role. With both Levis and Rudolph likely to get snaps Week 18, neither profiles as an appealing fantasy play.

Titans' Will Levis: Expected to be active as backup
Rotowire
Levis (shoulder), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts, is expected to be active and serve as the backup to starter Mason Rudolph, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Head coach Brian Callahan had already announced Wednesday that Levis would be removed from the starting role in favor of Rudolph, who has taken all the first-team reps in practice this week. Levis was a full participant Wednesday and Thursday before downgrading to limited activity Friday, but the fact that the Titans didn't elevate Trevor Siemian from the practice squad prior to Saturday's deadline for Week 16 roster moves suggests that Levis' shoulder injury isn't a major concern.

Levis (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts.
Levis was added to the injury report Friday, getting in a limited session. Coach Brian Callahan already had announced Mason Rudolph as the team's starting quarterback for Week 16 against the Colts. Trevor Siemian is on the practice squad as a candidate to be elevated should Levis be unable to serve as the team's QB2 this weekend.

Titans' Will Levis: Benched for Mason Rudolph
Rotowire
Head coach Brian Callahan announced Wednesday that Levis will move to the bench for Sunday's game against the Colts, with Mason Rudolph replacing him as the Titans' starting quarterback, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Rudolph is expected to direct the offense for the final three games of the season, though Callahan is reserving the right to change his mind on a week-to-week basis. Callahan also suggested that he still believes in Levis long term and doesn't think he's done as an NFL starting quarterback, according to Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com. In any case, Levis will be the team's backup quarterback this Sunday in Indianapolis.

Titans' Will Levis: Benched after four turnovers
Rotowire
Levis completed eight of 12 passes for 89 yards, zero touchdowns and three interceptions in Sunday's 37-27 loss to the Bengals. He also lost a fumble.
Levis had shown an improved ability to take care of the ball since returning from a shoulder injury in Week 10, having thrown only two picks and losing one fumble in five games. Things unraveled for him quickly in Sunday's loss, however, as he lost a fumble to begin the second quarter and then threw an interception on back-to-back possessions. After throwing a pick-six on Tennessee's second drive of the second half, he was ultimately benched in favor of Mason Rudolph. Levis' status is uncertain for the rest of the season after his most recent benching.

Titans' Will Levis: Shoulder becomes concern again
Rotowire
Levis completed 19 of 32 passes for 168 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 10-6 loss to the Jaguars. He added one rush for three yards.
Levis drew one of the best matchups in the league against a struggling Jaguars defense, but he managed to do little with the opportunity. Tennessee didn't find the end zone on the day, while Levis averaged only 5.3 yards per attempt. Most concerning was that he aggravated the AC joint sprain that cost him three games earlier in the season on a hard hit on the final play of the first half, per Turron Davenport of ESPN.com. That likely affected his performance in the final two quarters of the loss and casts doubt on his status moving forward.

Titans' Will Levis: Sleeper QBs
Rotowire
Levis comes into Week 14 having scored at least 20.1 Fantasy points in three of his past four games, including two in a row on the road against Houston and Washington. He gets a great matchup at home against the Jaguars, who are No. 1 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks. Eight quarterbacks this season have scored at least 20.6 Fantasy points against Jacksonville, and Levis is worth using as a streaming option in all leagues.

If you're too scared of Winston's matchup, Will Levis faces the defense that allows the most Fantasy points per game to opposing QBs. Levis has thrown multiple passing touchdowns and topped 20 Fantasy points in three of his last four starts since returning from injury.

Titans' Will Levis: Week 14 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Levis scored at least 20.1 Fantasy points in three of his past four games, and now he gets a dream matchup in Week 14 against Jacksonville, which is No. 1 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks. He follows that up in Week 15 with Cincinnati (No. 3 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks), Week 16 at Indianapolis (No. 18) and Week 17 against the Jaguars again. It's a great schedule, and Levis could be a difference maker down the stretch. He's worth adding for at least 5 percent of your remaining FAB.

Titans' Will Levis: Two scores in blowout loss
Rotowire
Levis completed 18 of 37 passes for 212 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 42-19 loss to the Commanders.
Levis' final line looks mediocre, though he failed to get the Tennessee offense moving until the Commanders held a 28-0 lead. Nevertheless, he did throw for multiple touchdowns -- both of which went to Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (24 and 17 yards) -- for the third time in the last four games. Most importantly for Levis, he once again limited mistakes by not turning the ball over and taking only two sacks. Though there are still inconsistencies, he's shown a decent amount of improvement from the start of the campaign.

Titans' Will Levis: Sleeper QBs
Rotowire
Let's see if Levis can continue playing well in Week 13, and he's worth starting in all Superflex and two-quarterback leagues. He's also worth a look in deeper, one-quarterback leagues against the Commanders. Levis has scored at least 20.1 Fantasy points in two of his past three games. He's still taking too many sacks (20 in his past three games), but this is a good matchup against Washington. Three of the past four quarterbacks against the Commanders have scored at least 21.7 Fantasy points, including Daniel Jones in Week 9, Russell Wilson in Week 10, and Cooper Rush in Week 12. Hopefully, Levis can follow suit in Week 13.

Titans' Will Levis: Gets deep ball going
Rotowire
Levis completed 18 of 24 pass attempts for 278 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 32-27 win over the Texans. He added eight rushes for 10 yards and also lost a fumble.
As usual, Levis had plenty of both positives and negatives during the Titans' upset win. He led the team to points on each of the first three drives, highlighted by a 38-yard touchdown pass to Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and a 63-yard connection with Calvin Ridley to set up a Tony Pollard score. Levis later chipped in his second touchdown with a 70-yard toss to Chigoziem Okonkwo, though the majority of that gain came after the catch. While those were all significant bright spots, Levis also turned the ball over twice, including a pick-six late in the third quarter, while also taking eight sacks. Despite the ongoing inconsistency, he's combined to throw for 573 yards with eight completions of at least 20 yards across his last two games.

Titans' Will Levis: Sleeper QBs
Rotowire
I'm not starting Levis in one-quarterback leagues, but I would consider using him in Superflex and two-quarterback formats in Week 12 at Houston. The Texans are No. 9 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks, and Levis has scored at least 17.6 Fantasy points in his past two games against the Chargers and Vikings. It might be garbage-time production for Levis with Tennessee chasing points, but Levis could be a surprise quarterback in Week 12, given the matchup.

Titans' Will Levis: Week 12 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Levis is worth adding in all Superflex and two-quarterback leagues where available for at least 10 percent of your remaining FAB. And he might be an option in deeper, one-quarterback leagues as well. In two games since coming back from a shoulder injury, Levis has scored at least 17.6 Fantasy points in each outing against the Chargers and Vikings. He also has a favorable upcoming schedule against Houston (Week 12), Washington (Week 13), Jacksonville (Week 14), Cincinnati (Week 15), Indianapolis (Week 16) and the Jaguars again (Week 17). It would be fun to see what happens if Levis gets hot to close the season.

Titans' Will Levis: Week 11 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Levis returned from a three-game absence with a shoulder injury and had his best Fantasy outing of the season in Week 10 at the Chargers with 23.1 points. While he padded his stats in garbage time, it was good to see a productive outing from Levis, and he has a favorable upcoming schedule to close the season, aside from a Week 11 matchup with Minnesota. But after that, he faces Houston, Washington, Jacksonville, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, and Jacksonville again, and Levis should be added in all Superflex and two-quarterback leagues where still available for at least 10 percent of your remaining FAB. And maybe there's a chance if he keeps playing well, he could be worth adding in one-quarterback leagues, but you don't need to make that move yet.

Titans' Will Levis: Set to start Sunday
Rotowire
Coach Brian Callahan announced Friday that Levis (right shoulder) will start Sunday's game against the Chargers, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Levis, who has missed three straight contests, returned to a full practice Thursday, paving the way for him to see his first game action since Week 6. As a result, Mason Rudolph -- who had started in place of Levis -- will move back to backup duties Sunday. In his return to the Titans' lineup, Levis offers a Week 10 option for those in deeper fantasy leagues or who are otherwise seeking help this weekend due to injury or bye week issues.

Titans' Will Levis: Turns in full practice
Rotowire
Levis (shoulder) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Levis had previously been listed as a non-participant or limited participant in each of the Titans' last eight practices, but his ability to log full reps Thursday likely signals that the young quarterback has moved past the sprained AC joint in his throwing shoulder that has been plaguing him since Week 4. Titans offensive coordinator Nick Holz seemed to confirm as much before Thursday's session got underway, telling Turron Davenport of ESPN.com that Levis had looked good throwing the football during his recent workouts Sunday and Wednesday. Titans head coach Brian Callahan has previously said that Levis will reclaim starting duties once healthy, so assuming the 25-year-old makes it out of Friday's practice no worse for the wear, he should be cleared to direct the Tennessee offense Sunday versus the Chargers.
