Titans to start QB Mason Rudolph over Will Levis this week

Mason Rudolph, Will Levis

The Tennessee Titans named Mason Rudolph their starting quarterback Wednesday for this week’s game in favor of scuffling second-year signal caller Will Levis.

Titans coach Brian Callahan said his decision does not extend beyond this week’s game at Indianapolis.

“We’ll take it week-to-week. I won’t make any proclamations about anything else. But it’ll be Mason for this week for sure,” Callahan told reporters. “I think I should be very clear: This doesn’t mean it’s the end of Will’s ability to be a good quarterback. Where we’re at, I felt like we needed a spark at the quarterback position. Just like any other player, when your play dips the way it did, there’s a chance to let somebody else do it.”

Callahan yanked Levis in the third quarter of Sunday’s 37-27 loss to the visiting Cincinnati Bengals, dropping the Titans to 3-11. Levis threw for just 89 yards and three interceptions, including a pick returned for a touchdown. He also lost a fumble.

Rudolph came on to complete 21 of 26 passes for 209 yards and two touchdowns — one on the final play of the game — and an interception.

Levis has thrown for 1,916 yards with 12 TDs and 12 INTs this season. He is 5-15 as a starter in his first two seasons in the NFL.

Rudolph is in his first season in Tennessee after spending his first five in Pittsburgh. He is 9-6-1 as the starter in his career, including 1-2 in 2024.
