Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis hasn’t played a competitive snap of football since January 2025. Despite health concerns and questions about his situation with the Titans, Levis remains confident in his ability to be an NFL starter.
Levis’ Confidence
Levis will likely start the season as the third-string quarterback, but he’s not shying away from the challenge of becoming a starting quarterback in the NFL again. "There are not 32 quarterbacks in this league better than me. I know that for sure," Levis told reporters. "I know I’ve put the tape out there already that I’m a dang good quarterback in this league."
Levis isn’t wrong in saying he has tape as an NFL starting quarterback, but his claim that it is "dang good" would be debated by most. The former Kentucky star owns a 5-16 record as a starter while throwing for 21 touchdowns and 16 interceptions to go along with a whopping 17 fumbles.
Competition for Backup Role
Levis is set to become a free agent at the end of the 2026 NFL season and is battling against veteran Mitchell Trubisky for the backup role with the season fast approaching. While Levis’ confidence is admirable, stating it while staring at the QB3 position on the depth chart in the early stages of training camp may be seen as overzealous.
