Who Should I Start? Mitchell Trubisky or Will Levis

Saturday, June 14, 11:19 AM

The Athletic's Joe Buscaglia writes that the Buffalo Bills backup quarterback job behind starter Josh Allen is up for grabs this offseason. Mitchell Trubisky isn't a lock to remain as Allen's backup in 2025. The writing was on the wall for Trubisky's backup job to be in jeopardy when the team signed Mike White to a two-year deal late last season. The Bills can save $1.5 million on this year's salary cap if they were to release Trubisky, even though $1 million of his base salary became guaranteed by staying on the roster through the offseason. It looks like Buffalo is going to let Trubisky and White battle it out this summer for the backup job. Trubisky has more experience in the NFL and more mobility, but White is more of a natural thrower, particularly in the intermediate and deep areas of the field. The competition might come down to who has the better camp and preseason.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis (shoulder) will miss the entire 2025 season as he undergoes surgery on his right shoulder. Levis initially sustained the injury early in the 2024 season and was unable to fully shake the discomfort. Levis started 12 games for Tennessee last season, throwing for 2,091 yards, 13 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions. He was expected to back up rookie No. 1 overall pick Cam Ward this year. With Levis now sidelined, veteran Brandon Allen is the favorite to assume backup duties. Allen appeared in three games for the 49ers in 2024, completing 17-of-30 passes for 199 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions.
