There was nothing more important to us as we entered the 2024 season. Tennessee Titans It’s more than just finding out whether 2023 second-round pick and point guard Will Levis is the franchise’s long-term solution.

Levis had plenty of breakthrough showings during an impressive rookie campaign, but the jury was still out on him overall. The jury is out on its verdict after seven games this season, and that’s not a good thing.

Levis looked like a shell of the point guard we saw last season, a mistake-prone mess. He’s largely responsible for Tennessee’s 1-6 record, which puts Tennessee on track to find another quarterback in 2025.

However Kristopher Knox from Bleacher Report He thinks the search for the Titans could begin in 2024. He predicts Tennessee will trade for a young, underachieving quarterback and draft a signal-caller for a potential job in 2025.

Quarterbacks Knox mentioned include Zach Wilson of the Denver Broncos, Trey Lance of the Dallas Cowboys, Bryce Young of the Carolina Panthers and Mac Jones of the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Tennessee needs to find its quarterback of the future, and Mason Rudolph is not a long-term solution. It might make sense to target a quarterback in the 2025 draft, but general manager Ran Carthon may not wait until the spring to add another quarterback to the mix.

Honestly, it wouldn’t make much sense for the Titans to trade for any of the players Knox mentioned. That’s because these are all lateral moves from Levis, and in the best case scenario, slight upgrades.

Neither Wilson, Young, Jones, nor Lance have shown enough belief that they can be a long-term solution at the position during their respective careers, so it wouldn’t make sense for a rebuilding team like the Titans to spend. draft capital to them.

Additionally, Wilson, Lance and Jones are not under contract through 2025, so they are not guaranteed to return to Nashville next year.

Young still has at least two more years left on his contract, so a buyout by Tennessee would make the most sense. But there’s still no sign that Young is a quality NFL starter and will end up in a bad situation like the one he’s in right now in Tennessee.

At the end of the day, the Titans would be better off sticking with Levis the rest of the way. If he continues to stink, Tennessee will be in a great position to take a top quarterback in next year’s draft, currently sitting at No. 2. tankathon.
