Cardinals opponent Tennessee Titans lose QB Will Levis for season to shoulder surgery
The Arizona Cardinals will face the Tennessee Titans in Week 5 at State Farm Stadium. The Titans have some quarterback news, although it doesn't necessarily impact their game with the Cardinals.
Quarterback Will Levis will undergo shoulder surgery and will miss the 2025 season.
He injured his shoulder early last season and played through it. Some pain still lingered, although he participated in the offseason program, but has elected to get it taken care of surgically.
Levis' starting job was lost to the No. 1 overall pick of this year's draft, Cam Ward, but this complicates things behind him should he get hurt or be ineffective.
The two other quarterbacks on the Titans' roster behind Ward are Brandon Allen and Tom Boyle. Allen has 10 career starts and is 2-8 in those starts, one coming since 2021, while Boyle is 0-5 in his career as a starter.
Losing Levis for the season weakens the Titans' quarterback room, meaning if Ward loses any time at all, they are not in a good situation.
We will see if they bring in anyone else before the season.

Sonny Gray Trade? Why Latest Mets, Cardinals Trade Buzz Makes No Sense
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Bleacher Report's Kerry Miller recently put together a list of every MLB team's trade needs ahead of the upcoming trade deadline. For the Cardinals, Miller suggested they need to pick a lane and went as far as to suggest trading Sonny Gray to the New York Mets if the Cardinals were to be sellers. "If the Cardinals are sellers, Ryan Helsley, Erick Fedde, Steven Matz, Phil Maton and Miles Mikolas are the expiring contracts to unload, while Sonny Gray could be the aforementioned ace the Mets target and Nolan Arenado could be the answer to the Yankees' hot corner woes," Miller wrote. But does this make sense? PHOENIX, ARIZONA - JULY 19: Starter Sonny Gray #54 of the St. Louis Cardinals pitches during the third inning against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field on July 19, 2025 in Phoenix, Arizona. PHOENIX, ARIZONA - JULY 19: Starter Sonny Gray #54 of the St. Louis Cardinals pitches during the third inning against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field on July 19, 2025 in Phoenix, of all, it's likely the Cardinals will be sellers. They've lost quite a bit this month, and their starting pitching rotation is far from postseason-ready. The Cardinals would need to make a lot of moves to get this team in shape to win the World Series. It's quite unlikely, so expect the Cardinals to be sellers. For the Mets, this deal would make a lot of sense. They need to add starting pitching, and Gray would fill that need with a consistent and reliable arm. He's quietly been one of the better pitchers in baseball for over five years now. The Cardinals could trade him, despite his team control, in a move that builds for the future. He would net a solid prospect return on the open market, so a trade could make sense. But Gray has a no-trade clause, and he's been unwilling to waive it for anybody. The veteran pitcher has carved out a role as a mentor to the younger arms in St. Louis, and he's done this job very well. He's been very vocal about his love for the Cardinals and how he wishes to stay with the team. If Gray is unwilling to waive his no-trade clause, then a deal is dead before it can even grow legs.
