The comeback tour for Will Levis has been put on ice.

The former Kentucky star quarterback will miss the entire 2025 NFL season after opting for season-ending surgery to repair a nagging AC joint injury in his throwing shoulder, per ESPN. The procedure is set for July 29, effectively sidelining him from Titans training camp, which opens this week.

The injury dates back to a Week 4 scramble against the Miami Dolphins, when Levis dove for a first down and landed awkwardly on his shoulder. He battled through the pain for most of the season but struggled with consistency and turnovers before being benched for Mason Rudolph.
