Will Levis is set to miss the entire 2025 NFL season following a key decision.

The Tennessee Titans quarterback has opted to undergo season-ending shoulder surgery, a move that will significantly impact the team’s depth in the position.

Levis’ decision was announced just days before the start of training camp. It also confirms that the AC joint injury he sustained during Week 4 of last season had not fully healed.

The former Penn State and Kentucky signal-caller was expected to compete with No. 1 overall pick Cam Ward for the starting job. But the Titans will now look to Brandon Allen and Tim Boyle as backups.

Levis played through the shoulder injury in 2024, which likely factored into his 2-10 record as a starter.

 

The 26-year-old participated in OTAs and minicamp this offseason, but it appears the pain levels were too high, leaving him inclined to prioritize his long-term health instead.

According to ESPN, Levis will have the operation on July 29 and is expected to return for the 2026 season.

“We support his decision to focus on his long-term health,” the team said in a statement. “He approached the offseason with professionalism and showed clear growth as a leader. We remain confident in his full recovery.”

“I think anyone who’s ever been in my situation can agree that it sucks,” Levis remarked. “I’m trying to do everything I can to not let it affect me and just be the same dude every day in the building.”

Given this development, Cam Ward’s path to QB1 is clearer, with the Titans now set to head into a new era with a quarterback who has been one of the most impressive in college football over the past few years.

He is expected to lead the team against the Denver Broncos in Week 1.

TPS wishes Will a successful surgery and speedy recovery.

WNBA star Brittney Griner was at the center of a new debate over what she allegedly said in a game against basketball phenom Caitlin Clark.

The Atlanta Dream center found herself at the center of social media controversy last month when some fans thought she disparaged Indiana Fever star guard Caitlin Clark upon fouling out.

The game’s broadcast focused on an upset Griner saying something as she returned to the Dream bench after fouling out of the game. While there’s no audio of this moment, some who tried to read Griner’s lips thought she called Clark a “trash f–king white girl.”

However, there’s no proof of Griner saying those actual words since others thought she stated something else.

It took weeks for someone to finally get a quote from her, and she provided much of nothing.

Brittney Griner was asked about this moment before her team’s June 15 game against the Washington Mystics and said, “I remember fouling out, being mad. I remember fouling out on, I believe it was [Natasha] Howard driving to the basket. They said I put my hand in.”

Moments before the conclusion of the Indiana Fever’s 81-76 victory over the Dream at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta weeks ago, cameras seemingly caught Atlanta Dream star center Brittney Griner labeling Caitlin Clark “trash” before calling her a “f***ing white girl” in frustration over a foul on Natasha Howard.

The clip of Griner speaking on the bench, lacking context, spread on social media and went viral.

Griner, who won a gold medal for Team USA at the Summer Olympics in Paris in 2024, essentially got away with whatever came out of her mouth because the league basically ignored the controversy.

This incident is not the only time Griner vocalized her frustrations this season. Following another game, she stormed off mid-interview, yelling at the referees to “be f—ing better.
