Tennessee Titans QB Will Levis will have season-ending shoulder surgery
The Titans announced Monday that Levis made his decision after consulting with doctors and his representatives. The Titans report Tuesday for training camp.
'We support his decision to focus on his long-term health,' the Titans said in a statement. 'He approached the offseason with professionalism and showed clear growth as a leader. We remain confident in his full recovery.'

Levis' surgery is scheduled for July 29.
The Titans used the No. 1 overall pick on quarterback Cam Ward in April after Levis struggled mightily starting 12 games in 2024. He threw for 2,091 yards, but he had 13 TD passes with 12 interceptions. He was sacked 41 times as Tennessee went 3-14 to land the top draft pick.
Tennessee also added veteran quarterbacks Brandon Allen and Tim Boyle this offseason.
Levis was the 33rd overall pick in 2023 when Tennessee's previous general manager Ran Carthon traded up to select the quarterback out of Kentucky. Carthon lasted just two seasons before being fired in January.
The quarterback started 12 games in 2024 after spraining the AC joint in his right, throwing shoulder September 30 against Miami while diving for a first down. Tennessee had a bye, then Levis played against Indianapolis in a home loss by three points after a late-game interception.
Levis admitted after the game his shoulder played a part in that late pick. He was sidelined the next three games before returning.
After the Titans took Ward in the draft, coach Brian Callahan rotated quarterbacks during the offseason program with no starter announced, which he said he planned to continue into training camp. Still, Ward is expected to be the starter when the Titans open the regular season.
That seemed to leave the competition for the No. 2 position wide open for Levis, who took part throughout the team's offseason program. He told reporters in June he felt more comfortable in his second season in Callahan's offense and was looking forward to training camp.
'I feel like I'm starting to get to that point as a quarterback, and it's just cool to feel that and see it and show everyone else here,' Levis said during minicamp.
The Titans announced late Monday afternoon the last of their nine draft picks signed his rookie contract.
Linebacker Oluwafemi Oladejo was the 52nd selection overall in the second round. He started 27 of 46 games, switching to edge rusher last year season when he had 4.5 sacks and 13.5 tackles for loss at UCLA.

Through foundation, Hornets' Brandon Miller hosts 1st Charlotte youth camp
Young athletes by the dozen had help honing their basketball skills at Queens University of Charlotte, with guidance from NBA coaches, players, and a Hornets legend. Hornets star Brandon Miller set to host basketball camp in Charlotte for first time The 'BMill Skills Factory' is a two-day camp designed for children ages 9-14, courtesy of the Team Miller Foundation, a nonprofit founded by Hornets forward Brandon Miller alongside his family. Team Miller also hosts the event annually at his alma mater in Nashville. 'I wasn't thinking it would be like this,' Brandon Miller said of the turnout. 'Me being here in the kid's presence, I think it's a blessing for the kids, just to learn new stuff about the game and learn new things about life.' Hornets legend Muggsy Bogues was among volunteers, along with Hornets head coach Charles Lee, and Miller's college teammate Noah Clowney. 'We're going to make them accountable, focused, but more importantly, have some fun,' Bogues said. 'One of the biggest qualities that Brandon has is his work ethic, and that's what we want,' said Miller's father, Darrell Miller. 'We only have them for two days here, but this goes on for 365 days.' 'This is just not an experience the kids have for now. They're going to remember this for a lifetime,' added Yolanda Miller, Miller's mother. The two recalled how their son was once a young camper, himself, and now among the NBA's rising stars. 'Charlotte is our second home now,' Brandon Miller said. 'Just to see kids show up in another city, another state just to support the foundation, it excites us. It brings us joy.'

Rock Hill High School football team gives back with free youth camp
The Rock Hill High School football team is hosting a free youth camp Saturday, aimed at giving back to the community and fostering a positive culture within the team. Rock Hill High School names new head football coach The camp will take place near District 3 Stadium and is open to more than 100 elementary and middle school kids interested in playing football. This initiative comes after the team faced culture concerns last year, leading to the appointment of a new head coach, Leon Boulware. 'The culture has changed and shifted. The kids are working really hard for it,' said Boulware. He's been helping the teens unite after parents complained about the program and the culture. 'I noticed the kids didn't know each other well, so I took them to the team camp for three days and got away from Rock Hill,' the coach said. The team has a new bond and is giving back Saturday with a free football camp for more than 100 elementary and middle school kids who want to play football. 'These camps are expensive it costs a lot of money and parents don't have money to send kids to these camps,' said parent Brad Basselman. 'On my staff alone, I have three former NFL players,' Boulware said. 'It's important to see they're right here in this area they came from the same background.' The team is expecting changes on the field. 'The goal is to always win,' Boulware said. 'We are going to take it one week at a time.' The camp will be held between 8 a.m. and 11 a.m. before it gets too hot.
