Tennessee Titans release Will Levis and Khalen Saunders on roster cutdown day

The Tennessee Titans reduced their roster to 53 players on Sunday ahead of the upcoming NFL season. In a move to transition toward a two-quarterback room, the organization released Will Levis, who reportedly requested his departure to pursue a new opportunity elsewhere. The team will proceed with Cam Ward and Mitch Trubisky as their primary signal-callers. Beyond the quarterback position, the Titans also parted ways with veteran defensive player Khalen Saunders. Meanwhile, receiver Xavier Restrepo secured a roster spot after an intensive summer camp, while Bryce Oliver was waived despite his previous special-teams duties. Offensive tackle Austin Deculus also earned a place on the final roster. The franchise now turns its attention to the practice squad, where some released players may potentially return if they clear waivers.
