Titans Sign Quarterback Hendon Hooker
The Tennessee roster gained another option under center, according to Jeremy Fowler of Filmogaz.com. The team has added Hendon Hooker to its offseason quarterback group.
Hooker’s NFL background
Hooker entered the league as a third-round pick in the 2023 draft. He has limited game experience at the NFL level.
All three of his regular-season appearances came in 2024 with Detroit. He completed 6 of 9 passes for 62 yards in those games.
Recent transactions
Detroit waived Hooker in August during the roster cutdown to 53 players. He then joined Carolina’s practice squad a few days later.
Late in the 2025 season, Hooker signed with the New York Jets’ practice squad. The Jets elevated him to their 53-man roster in January.
Impact on Tennessee’s depth chart
The addition increases Tennessee’s offseason quarterback tally to five. The group now includes Mitchell Trubisky, Brandon Allen, Will Levis, and 2025 No. 1 overall pick Cam Ward.
- Cam Ward — 2025 No. 1 overall pick and presumptive starter.
- Mitchell Trubisky — veteran presence.
- Brandon Allen — reserve quarterback.
- Will Levis — returning from a shoulder injury that cost him last season.
- Hendon Hooker — newly added depth option at quarterback.
Next steps for the Titans
Maintaining five quarterbacks through training camp is uncommon. The team will likely make moves before the regular season.
Levis is considered a probable candidate to be traded or released after recovering from his shoulder injury. The Titans will evaluate options as the offseason progresses.
Filmogaz.com first reported the Hooker addition via Jeremy Fowler. The move reshapes Tennessee’s competition at the position.
