The Tennessee Titans are facing a pivotal moment as quarterback Will Levis is set to miss the entire 2025 season following shoulder surgery. Despite this setback, General Manager Mike Borgonzi has made it clear that the team does not intend to add another quarterback to the roster, expressing confidence in their current options.
Levis’ injury stems from an AC joint issue sustained early in the 2024 season, which worsened over time despite efforts to rehab and play through it. His up-and-down performances, including 12 interceptions and 41 sacks in 12 games, led the franchise to draft Cam Ward with the first overall pick in 2025. Ward is now expected to take over as the team’s starter heading into training camp.
Borgonzi emphasized the team’s belief in Ward’s potential, along with the contributions of veteran backups Brandon Allen and Tim Boyle. While neither backup has an impressive track record, which includes Allen holding a 2-8 career record and Boyle yet to win a game, the team appears committed to developing Ward as their franchise quarterback. Borgonzi praised Ward’s work ethic and progression, indicating optimism about his readiness for the NFL.
This approach reflects a broader organizational strategy to rebuild through youth and internal development. President Chad Brinker highlighted the importance of growth across the roster, particularly among younger players like Ward and other recent additions. The team is focused on eliminating costly mistakes, such as penalties and turnovers, which plagued their 2024 campaign.
Tennessee Titans General Manager Mike Borgonzi Drops Intriguing Quarterback Take After Will Levis’ Injury
Just recently, Borgonzi got real about Tennessee’s quarterback room after Levis suffered a season-ending shoulder injury. This is detailed more in an article by Scott Polacek for Bleacher Report.
The Tennessee Titans lost some of their quarterback depth behind presumed starter Cam Ward when they announced Monday that Will Levis will miss the 2025 season because of shoulder surgery, but they don’t plan on adding another signal-caller before the campaign.
“We feel good about the quarterback room, don’t see us adding anyone else right now,” general manager Mike Borgonzi told reporters Tuesday.
While some fans may question the lack of additional quarterback depth, the Titans see this as a chance to evaluate their investments. Borgonzi and Brinker are prioritizing long-term development over short-term fixes, underscoring their commitment to rebuilding the franchise.
As training camp begins, all eyes will be on Ward and the Titans’ ability to navigate the challenges ahead. The season will serve as a litmus test for their rebuilding efforts and the foundation they aim to establish.
