Saleh blames WRs for Ward’s sloppy footwork

Cam Ward

TEN Quarterback #1

Player Stats

Titans head coach Robert Saleh said Titans pass catchers and the team’s defense are to blame for Cam Ward’s sloppy footwork.

Asked about Ward’s continuing footwork disaster, Saleh said the second-year quarterback “usually starts off good then fades into old habits.” Titans beat writer Terry McCormick then asked Saleh “why if his footwork gets worse as the game goes on, why the offense has had such slow starts. [Saleh] said it has been dropped passes vs. Giants and defense not getting off field vs. Eagles.” Saleh has made a point to shield Ward from all criticism throughout the preseason and through three horrific regular season outings. Ward ranks 20th in accuracy and 29th in EPA per drop back this season. He’s fresh off throwing a game-deciding end zone interception against the lowly Giants in Week 3. Mitchell Trubisky will probably get a couple starts this season if Ward can’t turn things around.

Cam Ward

TEN Quarterback #1

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Cam Ward completed 20-of-31 attempts for 181 yards and an interception in the Titans’ Week 7 loss to the Browns.

Ward did his best game manager impression in this one and made a handful of solid high-leverage throws using various arm angles. He had a positive EPA per drop back and was slightly over his expected completion rate, small victories at this point but still victories. The Titans deployed no-huddle for much of the game and operated at a quick pace — a strategy that seemed to get Ward into some sort of rhythm early on. Ward’s accuracy issues showed up on the fourth quarter when he sailed a pass over the head of a wide open tight end who had beaten the entire Cleveland secondary. It would’ve likely been a game-winning touchdown. Ward has now cracked 200 passing yards just once through Week 7 and should only be rostered in superflex formats.
Cam Ward

TEN Quarterback #1

Cam Ward completed 11-of-22 passes for 102 yards, one touchdown and an interception in the Titans’ 26-20, Week 6 win over the Colts.

Ward added just three carries for seven yards. Ward got the “quarterback win” as the Titans finally broke their five-game losing streak to begin the season, but this was more about the Colts imploding and setting up one short Titans field after another with turnovers. Ward did keep his connection with No. 4 overall rookie Carnell Tate going, finding him for 6/70/1 on seven targets. Ward didn’t find veteran Calvin Ridley for what would have been a wide open end zone grab, but we digress. His interception was a second quarter sail job as he was getting leveled by the blitz. Ward’s increasing chemistry with Tate is the Titans’ first real good news of the season, but today was not a particularly inspiring victory. They now get the Browns for a Week 7 home matchup.
Cam Ward

TEN Quarterback #1

Titans head coach Robert Saleh said he had a “cool conversation” with Cam Ward.

Ward’s head, per Saleh, is in a “good place” ahead of the Titans’ Week 6 game against the Colts. Ward has been dreadful through five weeks, ranking 24th in EPA per drop back and 27th in drop back success rate. Only five quarterbacks have a lower adjusted yards per attempt than Ward this season. Daniel Jones and Tyson Bagent are the only QBs who average fewer fantasy points per drop back. Saleh has defended his second-year QB at every turn and does not seem close to benching him in favor of journeyman backup Mitchell Trubisky.
Cam Ward

TEN Quarterback #1

Cam Ward completed 23-of-36 passes for 170 scoreless yards and an interception in Tennessee’s Week 5, 26-3 loss to the Texans.

The Titans led off the day with a 58-yard field-goal drive that fell apart from a red zone first-and-5. They would not even flirt with crossing 30 yards in a drive for the rest of the game and crossed into Texans territory on only 11 more snaps all game, including just one inside the Houston 40. Ward took four sacks and avoided several others by turning Tyjae Spears into a PPR hero. The closest he came to actually putting points on the board was a double-covered bomb to Carnell Tate’s general area. It was, well, what you would have expected from both sides in the preseason. Ward remains a last gasp supeflex QB2 heading into Week 6’s game against the Colts.
Cam Ward

TEN Quarterback #1

Cam Ward completed 20-of-31 passes for 222 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in the Titans’ 24-18, Week 4 loss to the Ravens, adding four carries for 27 additional yards.

Ward’s second pass of the game resulted in an interception, but he would settle in to put together his most productive outing of the season. Ward linked up with rookie first-rounder Carnell Tate on multiple long gains and ended the day with four completions of 20-plus yards. The two would connect on a 33-yard pass late in the fourth quarter on a fourth-and-10, and on the next play, Ward would find Wan’Dale Robinson for a three-yard score to cut the Ravens’ lead to 24-18. Ward did a good job at evading pressure in this one. Despite being pressured on 11 dropbacks, per PFF, only one of those resulted in a sack. Ward has been sacked just once over the last two weeks, but will have a tough challenge ahead of him next week when the Titans play host to the Texans. Ward projects as a low-end QB2 next week.
Cam Ward

TEN Quarterback #1

Titans coach Robert Saleh said “no” when asked if he’d consider sitting QB Cam Ward.

Ward’s gotten off to a slow start in 2026, completing 62.5 percent of his passes for a meager 504 yards and two touchdowns in three games. He has improved his sack rate quite a bit, cutting it from 9.2 percent in 2025 to 5.38 percent so far this year. The Titans backup is Mitch Trubisky. It is probably too soon to give up on Ward, but it doesn’t bode well for his future that Saleh is already being asked the question. Ward will be one of the bottom five quarterbacks in the Week 4 fantasy rankings against the Ravens.
Cam Ward

TEN Quarterback #1

Cam Ward completed 23-of-36 passes for 181 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in the Titans’ 7-12, week 3 loss to the Giants.

The Titans’ offense looked dead on arrival with 34 yards on their six first-half drives. They opened the game with four consecutive three-and-outs and didn’t get on the board until late in the fourth quarter, when Ward tossed a short touchdown to Wan’Dale Robinson. It looked like Ward was getting in rhythm late in the game, but he ended the contest with a ghastly interception directly into the hands of Jevon Holland, who was standing in the end zone waiting for the ball. Ward took care of the ball until the game-ending throw, but this was a one step forward, two steps back showing from the young passer. That has unfortunately been the case for the better part of the last three weeks. Ward is not on the fantasy radar for Week 4 against the Ravens, and his poor play is making all of the team’s fantasy options largely irrelevant.
Cam Ward

TEN Quarterback #1

Cam Ward completed 13-of-20 passes for 183 yards in the Titans’ 24-20, Week 2 loss to the Eagles, adding four rushes for seven yards and two touchdowns.

Ward’s two scores on the ground doubled his previous career total, though he is now sitting on one passing touchdown through eight quarters. He is at least not turning the ball over, and has taken “just” five sacks. He has been so far unable to heat up his connections with offseason additions Carnell Tate and Wan’Dale Robinson, but he found Elic Ayomanor for two critical gains vs. Philly. Cutting out the negative plays was an absolutely essential first step for Ward, but he has yet to supplement them with big gains or consistent chain-moving. That included botching a Hail Mary in the fourth quarter this afternoon. Ward won’t be much of a superflex option for next week’s road date with the Giants.
Cam Ward

TEN Quarterback #1

Cam Ward completed 19-of-32 passes for 140 yards and a touchdown in the Titans’ 23-10, Week 1 loss to the Jets, adding four rushes for 21 yards.

Ward also took three sacks for 13 yards. His touchdown was a too little, too late 11-yard strike to Elic Ayomanor with the Titans trailing 23-3 at the 2:42 mark of the fourth quarter. As was the case down the stretch last season, Ward did a good job of avoiding turnovers, but he struggled to generate positive plays of any kind. He was besieged by pressure, but he just wasn’t making anything happen. That could come in time — there’s a new experienced play-caller in Brian Daboll and several new weapons in the skill corps — but this was a highly discouraging start to the year at home vs. a not-exactly-amazing Jets defense. It was certainly confirmation that Ward is on the outside looking in of top-24 status in superflex leagues for the time being. The Eagles are a rough Week 2 matchup, even if the Titans are at home.
Cam Ward

TEN Quarterback #1

Titans offensive coordinator Brian Daboll said the team’s downfield passing attack has to improve.

Cam Ward’s preseason has been as bad or even worse than his rookie campaign. Ward in last week’s preseason game against Seattle completed eight of his 12 attempts for 69 yards. His average depth of target on completed passes this preseason sits at a meager 1.2. Carnell Tate, meanwhile, has been targeted five times on his 23 preseason routes and does not have a reception to show for it. Daboll has been somewhat defensive this month when asked about Ward’s immense struggles after working on basic fundamentals with the second-year QB in the offseason. Ward, one of the most inaccurate passers in recent NFL history, is unlikely to support more than one fantasy-viable pass catcher in 2026.

Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) and Jahmyr Gibbs (shoulder) practiced in full Thursday.

The upgrades from “DNP” to full sessions indicates both players will be fine for normal workloads when the Lions face off against the Vikings Sunday, easing fantasy managers’ collective minds after both players were not present at practice Wednesday. Fantasy managers will want to confirm their respective statuses on Friday’s injury report, but it certainly appears as if the team will have their full complement of skill position players for the divisional tilt.

NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo reports the Colts have told teams they won’t move Adetomiwa Adebawore.

Adebawore, a fourth-round pick in 2023, played under 200 snaps in each of his first two seasons and was a pass-rush specialist in 2025. In 2026, he’s taken a step forward, with an 81.8 PFF grade buoyed by an 86.3 pass rush grade. It would be reasonable to expect the Colts to try to extend a player like this, but they sure didn’t seem to have any urgency to do it before the year.

Tyler Warren (groin) was limited in practice Thursday.

It was his second consecutive limited showing following two missed games, with his level of activity Friday likely to be telling as it pertains to a potential return in Week 8. Warren’s absence has been felt hard by a Colts offense that has struggled to move the football consistently. He would likely return to a sizable role over the middle of the field against the pass-funnel Jaguars, if active in Week 8.

Jones was forced from the team’s Week 7 win over the Colts due to an aggravation of an existing knee injury. The fact he was able to return to the practice field in any capacity after missing Wednesday’s session is good news for his potential availability against the Lions. We would expect him to form a loose committee with Jordan Mason, if active Sunday. Fantasy managers will want to confirm his level of participation Friday.

With Zach Charbonnet’s status also in some doubt, Seattle’s backfield situation likely won’t be sorted out until Saturday (or MNF inactives), but if Price is back that’s probably the end of Emmanuel Wilson’s short-term RB2 ride. We’ll keep an eye on the situation. Wilson-reliant managers might want to consider alternative arrangements for Week 8.

It’s a rough blow for Noel, who had been extremely efficient on his targets. It does clear up space for some of Houston’s other receivers. The recently-activated Tank Dell and recently-acquired Marvin Harrison Jr. will benefit a bit from one fewer mouth to feed after the Texans come off bye.
