PALM BEACH, Fla. – This much is true:
-The Titans are doing their homework on quarterback prospects in the upcoming NFL Draft, finding out as much as they can about Miami's Cam Ward and Colorado's Shedeur Sanders. There's a chance they could pick one of them.
-The Titans have signed veteran quarterbacks Brandon Allen and Tim Boyle this month, and they plan to let them compete at the position this offseason and into training camp.
-The Titans were interested in re-signing veteran Mason Rudolph, but he opted to sign with the Steelers after discussing a return to Tennessee.
-The Titans have not had trade talks with anyone about quarterback Will Levis, contrary to a report earlier this month.
"That's a false report," Titans President of Football Operations Chad Brinker said from the NFL owners meetings on Sunday. "We have not contacted anybody, and nobody has contacted us, about Will Levis. I don't think anything has changed from the time somebody asked me about this a month ago.
"What's the plan with Will Levis? The plan with Will Levis is he has a chance to compete for a starting job next year. And that's like every player that's on our roster. It's no different for Will. I see him in our facility, he's working hard. Everybody knows he's a great kid, he's a hard worker and he's going to give it everything he has. And we're going to continue to work with Will Levis."
A second-round pick of the Titans in the 2023 NFL Draft, Levis completed 190-of-301 passes for 2,091 yards, 13 touchdowns, 12 interceptions in 12 starts in 2024, with a passer rating of 81.4. He added 183 rushing yards on 45 attempts.
Earlier this offseason, Titans General Manager Mike Borgonzi said his communication with Levis has been positive since he was hired for the job.
Borgonzi said he wants Levis to keep working to get ready for the 2025 season.
"We've had good conversations since I took the job," Borgonzi said of Levis. "He came in and we sat down and talked. So, he's on the roster right now and there's going to be competition in every room, quarterback room included. But Will has been great."
This time next month, the Titans should have a lot more clarity at the quarterback position.
"For us heading into this camp, we at least want three quarterbacks, preferably four if we can," Brinker said. "Depending on what we do in this draft, if we go quarterback (we'd have four), or we go another position, at least we'd have three quarterbacks. If we don't draft one, maybe we could look for a fourth (after) and then we'd have four quarterbacks going into the preseason."
