Titans QB Cam Ward Limited in Practice Ahead Texans Clash

Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Cam Ward, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, has faced significant challenges early in his career, including being sacked an NFL-high 15 times over three games due to a porous offensive line. Despite these struggles and a 0-3 start for the Titans, Ward has shown promise with his athleticism, strong arm, and ability to extend plays, earning respect from Houston Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans ahead of their upcoming matchup. Ward was listed as a limited participant in practice due to ankle and calf injuries, raising concerns about his availability for the crucial AFC South game against the also winless Texans. The Titans have made coaching adjustments by having head coach Brian Callahan relinquish play-calling duties to improve the offense and support Ward's development. While Ward's health remains a key factor, the Titans hope to secure their first win of the season on the road, leveraging Ward's potential and their defensive strengths, including standout defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons. Both teams view the Week 4 matchup as a pivotal opportunity to gain momentum in the division.
