Will Levis Waived by Titans

Sunday, August 30, 11:15 AM

The Tennessee Titans are waiving quarterback Will Levis, according to Paul Kuharsky. Tennessee traded up to select Levis 33rd overall in 2023, but he never established himself as the long-term answer. He made 21 starts over his first two seasons, throwing for 3,899 yards, 21 touchdowns and 16 interceptions while the Titans went 5-16. Levis then missed the entire 2025 season after undergoing surgery on his throwing shoulder. By the time he returned, Cam Ward was firmly entrenched as the starter and Mitchell Trubisky had been brought in as the primary backup. Levis got one final extended look Saturday against Chicago, completing 14 of 22 passes for 143 yards but failing to lead a touchdown drive. Kuharsky reports that Tennessee had hoped Levis might generate trade interest, but nothing developed. The former second-round pick will now look for another opportunity after falling out of the Titans' quarterback plans.

Drake Maye's Fantasy Environment Has Only Gotten Better

Thursday, August 27, 5:13 AM

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye was the MVP runner-up and fantasy QB2 in his second season, his first with offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, and since then his weaponry has only grown stronger. The Patriots' top two receivers in 2025 were Stefon Diggs and Kayshon Boutte. The former spent most of the summer as a free agent before finally signing a one-year, $8 million deal with the Commanders, while the latter was traded to the Texans on Monday for what amounted to a 2025 sixth-rounder and a 2028 seventh-round pick. Meanwhile, the Patriots spent a first and a fifth to acquire A.J. Brown after signing Romeo Doubs to a four-year, $68 million contract. New England also ran the league's lowest percentage of plays while trailing in 2025, so a more difficult schedule could lead to even more pass attempts for Maye and a higher fantasy ceiling. The soon-to-be-24-year-old is RotoBaller's QB6, but he has the skill set and the environment to threaten for an overall QB1 finish.
