Ward is coming to the Titans, who has missed the playoffs for the last three seasons. The team has not had a winning record since 2021 when Ryan Tannehill lead the team to a 12-5 record under former head coach Mike Vrabel.
Levis — the former second round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft — has not panned out like the Titans had hoped or they would not have made this decision. The former Kentucky Wildcats quarterback went 2-10 as a starter in 12 games in 2024.
He went 190 of 301 for 2,091 passing yards. He had 13 touchdown passes and 12 interceptions.
