Titans' Cam Ward Faces Rookie Challenges, Shows Promise

News summary

Rookie quarterback Cam Ward, the Tennessee Titans' first overall pick, is drawing praise for his leadership and maturity from teammates like Tony Pollard during his first NFL training camp. Ward has focused on short, quick passes and is working to adjust to the NFL's pace, but has faced tough defensive pressure, including his first interception by linebacker Cody Barton and several breakups by other defenders. On Day 1, Ward completed 12 of 17 passes, mainly on short routes, while Day 2 saw him finish with 9 completions and no touchdowns. Defensive rookies Jermari Harris and Kevin Winston Jr. have also challenged Ward, underscoring the competitive atmosphere in camp. The Titans' coaching staff is prioritizing improvements in timing and ball placement as part of Ward's development. While Ward experiences the expected rookie difficulties, his leadership and rapport with teammates remain promising for the team's future.
