The New York Jets have added former Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis to their practice squad, according to a source familiar with the matter. Levis, a second-round draft pick for the Titans in 2023, was released from the team's practice squad to make room for him. The 27-year-old quarterback, who missed all of last season due to shoulder surgery, had expressed confidence in his abilities earlier this year.
New York's active roster includes starter Geno Smith and rookie Cade Kubnik, who was selected in the fourth round. As such, Levis would serve as the team's third-string quarterback and would be inactive during games unless promoted from the practice squad. Levis had a 3,899-yard passing season with the Titans, throwing 21 touchdowns and 16 interceptions, but also had four pick-6s and lost five fumbles during the same period.
