The Titans haven't gotten very strong play at quarterback to begin the 2024 season.
Second-year QB Will Levis came into the season as Tennessee's starter, but after a rough performance in Week 1 vs. Chicago and some struggles early vs. the Jets in Week 2, there's an increasing chance the team is forced to try other options.
However, the Titans are currently limited in QB choices outside of Levis after trading away one of their backups before the season started.
Here's a look at Tennessee's QB depth chart amid Levis' struggles.
Titans QB depth chart
| Rank | Player |
| 1 | Will Levis |
| 2 | Mason Rudolph |
No. 1: Will Levis
In nine games in 2023, Levis had 1,808 passing yards, eight touchdowns, and four interceptions with an 84.2 rating.
It was a decent start to his NFL career, giving the Titans hope that he could take steps forward as a passer in Year 2. However, Levis' numbers in the early season aren't very encouraging.
In Week 1, Levis threw for 127 yards, a touchdown, and two interceptions. That included a brutal play where he tossed the ball away right into the hands of the Bears' defense, resulting in a pick-six.

Mark Sanchez saw this pick-six from Will Levis coming.

In Week 2 vs. New York, Levis had another ugly-looking turnover while tossing the ball to his side.

After the play, Levis got an earful from his head coach, Brian Callahan.

With his turnover and decision-making issues this season so far, the Titans could end up looking toward their second option on the depth chart.
No. 2: Mason Rudolph
The only other QB on Tennessee's roster, including its practice squad, is Mason Rudolph.
Rudolph spent four seasons with the Steelers before joining the Titans for the 2024 season. The most games he's played in a season is 10, which came in his rookie year in 2019.
However, Rudolph did have three touchdowns and zero interceptions in his three-game appearances for Pittsburgh last season.
The Titans chose to stick with Rudolph as their QB2 when they traded Malik Willis to Green Bay before the season began. If they want to switch things up at quarterback, Rudolph is their only in-house option.
