AN NFL third-quarterback quarterback’s career is now uncertain after his 2025 season has been ruled out due to injury.
The signal-caller aggravated a past injury that occurred in the 2024-25 season.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis will undergo season-ending surgery on his right shoulder, the team announced Monday.
The injury stems from an injury the 2022 second-round pick sustained last season.
“After consulting with doctors and his representatives, Will Levis has decided to undergo shoulder surgery that will sideline him for the entire 2025 season,” the statement read.
“We support his decision to focus on his long-term health. He approached the offseason with professionalism and showed clear growth as a leader.
“We remain confident in his full recovery.”
The injury occurred last September during the Titans’ Week 4 win over the Miami Dolphins.
Levis dove for a first down and left the game with an AC joint injury.
The 26-year-old experienced discomfort with his shoulder during minicamp, a source told ESPN.
Levis then began looking for more medical opinions before opting to have surgery.
He was set to fight for a roster spot, but will now miss the rest of the season.
It didn’t seem that Levis would receive the starting role with the Titans in 2025 after the team selected quarterback Cam Ward No. 1 overall in the 2025 NFL Draft.
With Levis out, Tennessee will now have Ward joined by Brandon Allen and Tim Boyle in the quarterback room.
Levis landed with the Titans at the No. 33 pick after being a projected first-round pick.
The Kentucky product’s rookie campaign experienced promising signs as he posted eight touchdowns to four interceptions.

He has a 5-16 career record in the games he’s started.
But Levis disappointed last season, recording 13 touchdowns against 12 interceptions.
The Titans even benched him for two weeks toward the end of the campaign.
Ward will take the first-team reps for the Titans in training camp, which begins this week.
