  "account": "The New York Jets hosted a free-agent quarterback workout on Thursday, featuring Will Levis and Jack Plummer. According to the NFL's transaction wire, the Jets evaluated two quarterbacks for potential inclusion on their practice squad. Plummer, who recently earned the Most Valuable Player award in the United Football League, is a recent addition to other football leagues. However, Levis remains the main focus as he is the intriguing choice among the two.\n\nLevis, a second-round pick by the Tennessee Titans in 2023, had an unsuccessful stint with the team, recording a 2-10 record in 12 starts. The quarterback was recently cut by the Titans on roster deadline day, prompting speculation that a change of scenery could be beneficial. With the Jets' 2026 schedule featuring their Week 1 matchup against the Titans, Levis has an opportunity to impress the team during his workout. As the Jets Wire continues to provide updates throughout the NFL season, fans will eagerly await Levis' performance in the hopes of a possible roster spot.",
