After a lengthy absence from making free-agent signings, the Tennessee Titans were back on the board on Friday, albeit with some minor moves.
The team announced a pair of signings in offensive lineman Corey Levin and tight end Trevon Wesco, both of whom were inked to one-year deals. Levin’s is for the vet minimum, per Justin Melo of The Draft Network.
Levin is an excellent re-signing for Tennessee. At worst he’s going to provide solid, reliable and versatile depth. At best, he could challenge for a starting spot at both guard and center, the latter of which he played well at in Ben Jones’ stead last season.
As far as Wesco is concerned, he’s not going to help in the passing attack but he is a good blocker. He’ll battle for a depth spot behind Chig Okonkwo.
Now, a look at how Titans fans and media reacted to the two moves.

Two #Titans transax:
–Versatile OL Corey Levin re-signed. The 2016 6th-rd pick started 3 games last yr at C after Jones hurt.
–TE Trevon Wesco (6-3, 267 lbs) signed. Has played 4 NFL seasons, 3 w/ Jets and 1 w/ Bears. Good run-blocker, has averaged about 180 off. snaps per yr.— John Glennon (@glennonsports) March 31, 2023
I’m getting 2014 vibes. #Titans fans convincing themselves that re-signing Corey Levin is an answer at all is… astounding.

Corey Levin back again! And yay a TE with 8 career catches

Levin is a great IOL depth and could compete at LG/C with Brewer, Ja. Jones + draft pick.
WR still biggest need, but dual-threat TE not far behind.

Among TEs who reach a snap threshold of 100 snaps, Trevon Wesco ranked 6th in run blocking grade and 8th in pass blocking grade in 2022. He's not a pass catcher. Think of him as the new Craig Stevens.

Trevon Wesco can make a huge difference for the #Titans first and second down offense. He will be a major asset on outside zone runs and as a blocker on some of the play-action shot concepts they like, two staple early down calls for Tennessee during the Vrabel era.

The current TE room for the #Titans:
Chigoziem Okonkwo (6-3, 238)
Trevon Wesco (6-3, 267)
Kevin Rader (6-4, 250)
Justin Rigg (6-6, 259)
Thomas Odukoya (6-6, 253)— Titans247 (@NFL_Titans247) March 31, 2023
Trevon wesco makes a ton of sense for titans for a blocking TE

Titans have agreed to terms with former Chicago Bears TE Trevon Wesco @twesco12 on a 1-year deal. Presumably Geoff Swaim’s replacement. Love this addition for the #Titans
