The New York Giants aren’t the only team struggling to find their next franchise quarterback. The Tennessee Titans are in the same boat, but instead of joining the quarterback waiting room, they’re about to have one fall right into their lap.
With the No. 1 overall pick in their hands and no willingness to trade out, all signs point to Tennessee drafting Miami’s Cam Ward, which means they’re officially ready to move on from Will Levis.
According to NFL insider Josina Anderson, Levis has already come up in trade discussions, and the Titans “would like to transition” from him. That didn’t take long. After just two seasons and 21 starts, Tennessee is ready to move on from a quarterback they took in the second round. It’s a brutal reality check for Levis, and an even bigger red flag for any team thinking about making a move for him.
As the Giants continue their endless search for a quarterback, Levis’ name hasn’t come up as a possible target—and for good reason. The Giants are desperate, but not this desperate.
The Giants should avoid buying any potential Will Levis hype
Levis’ tenure in Tennessee never really got off the ground.
He showed occasional flashes of his big arm, but the overall production just wasn’t there. Over two seasons, he went 5-16 as a starter, completing 61% of his passes for 3,899 yards, 21 touchdowns, and 16 interceptions. An inaccurate quarterback with turnover issues who struggles to find the endzone? Giants fans have seen this movie before, and it wasn’t a good one.
The Titans' decision to move on so quickly says a lot. They could have tried to give him another chance in 2025. Instead, they’re cutting bait before he even enters Year 3. That alone should scare teams off.
New York has already wasted an entire offseason waiting for Aaron Rodgers, and they’re running out of options. If they don’t land Rodgers or Russell Wilson, their best move is to either swing a trade with the New England Patriots or the Atlanta Falcons for Joe Milton or Kirk Cousins, respectively or hope Shedeur Sanders falls to them at No. 3 during the NFL Draft.
Trading for Levis would be a pointless gamble. He’s not a proven starter, he wouldn’t be a meaningful upgrade over what they already have, and if the Giants are going to roll the dice on a relatively unproven quarterback, they’re better off rolling with Tommy DeVito.
Levis might get another shot somewhere, but it shouldn’t be in New York.
