Levis Clears Waivers, Enters Free Agency with Backup Suitors

Quarterback Will Levis was waived by the Tennessee Titans and went unclaimed, making him a free agent. Potential landing spots include the Washington Commanders, Green Bay Packers, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, all of which could use backup depth. Levis struggled as a starter, posting a 5-16 record and a 25.2 QBR in 2024.

Levis entered the NFL as a second-round selection in 2023 but never secured a consistent starting role in Tennessee. His 2024 campaign saw him rank 36th in QBR across 12 games, contributing to a 5-16 overall starting record before the team moved on.

The waiver process yielded no claims, leaving Levis to negotiate as a free agent. Washington's need for backup insurance stems from Marcus Mariota's preseason knee issue and Jayden Daniels' seven-game absence last year. Green Bay recently traded Kyle McCord, creating a depth opening under offensive-minded coach Matt LaFleur. Tampa Bay released veteran Jake Browning, leaving undrafted Jalon Daniels as the primary backup to Baker Mayfield.
