Despite some speculation that the Tennessee Titans would try to move on from 2023 second-round quarterback Will Levis this weekend, GM Mike Borgonzi said Monday that the team made no effort to trade Levis during the draft according to Myles Simmons of Pro Football Talk.com.

“I think there’s going to be competition in every room and he elevates the competition in that room,” Borgonzi said in a press conference, adding Levis has “a lot” of value. “That’s what we’re trying to do here, as we get into training camp, is have the best 90-man roster, best competition in every room, and Will certainly provides that.”

With the selection of Cam Ward, Tennessee now has the rookie, Levis, Brandon Allen, and Tim Boyle at quarterback on their 90-man roster.

“Yeah, it’s a great room we have right now with those four guys,” Borgonzi said. “And that’ll be up to Brian [Callahan] and his staff in terms of reps as we go through the offseason and get into training camp. But, we’ll take it step-by-step here. And that’ll be up to Brian in terms of who takes what reps at some point.  So, we’re not going to name any starters here though, right now here in the offseason.”

The 25-year-old Levis has made 21 starts over his first two seasons, completing 61 percent of his passes for 3,899 yards with 21 touchdowns and 16 interceptions.  He has shown glimpses of promise but to date has not shown the Titans or the rest of the league any real evidence that he is an NFL-caliber starting QB.
