When the Tennessee Titans traded Malik Willis to the Green Bay Packers as part of their 53-man roster trimming, it left an open position on the team. Will Levis is the starter and Mason Rudolph is his backup, but what happens if both of these quarterbacks get hurt?
With Willis gone, there wasn’t a clear answer to that question until yesterday when the Titans announced that wide receiver Tyler Boyd would be the emergency QB3.

Per Brian Callahan, WR Tyler Boyd is the #Titans emergency QB.

Boyd was drafted by the Cincinnati Bengals in 2016 and just joined the Titans roster in 2024. He was part of Brian Callahan’s and Ran Carthon’s skill player upgrades for Levis, completing the three-headed monster with Calvin Ridley and DeAndre Hopkins.
Believe it or not, Boyd has actually attempted passes in the NFL. He attempted six passes with the Bengals over five seasons, completing three of them for 85 yards. He also threw an interception and was sacked once.
Everyone would rather see Boyd on the field catching passes from Levis, and no one wants to consider two quarterbacks going down in one season, but it does happen. The Titans are lucky to have a player like Boyd who can step in in a pinch, but no one really wants to see him under center if it can be helped.
