Rookie QB Cam Ward Shines in Titans Minicamp, Eyes Starting Role
  • Rookie quarterback Cam Ward showcased his skills during the Tennessee Titans' mandatory minicamp, completing 20 of 21 passes on June 11, 2025.

  • His candid approach to preparation, stating he plans to 'work out, stay in the playbook, and throw the f*** out the ball,' has resonated well with Titans fans.

  • Over the course of three minicamp practices, Ward completed 42 of 58 passes in 7-on-7 and team drills, indicating a strong start to his NFL career.

  • Wide receiver Xavier Restrepo, who went undrafted, has quickly made an impact by leading the team with six receptions during minicamp, four of which came from Ward.

  • The developing connection between Ward and Restrepo is seen as beneficial for both players as they transition into the NFL.

  • Ward is competing with former second-round pick Will Levis for the starting quarterback position, with expectations that he may be named the starter ahead of the Titans' season opener.

  • Reports suggest that Ward's performance during offseason workouts has shown promise, and he is likely to secure the starting role for the upcoming season.

  • Despite some rookie mistakes, including two interceptions during practice, Ward demonstrated resilience by rebounding with a touchdown pass later in the session.

  • Ward has been proactive in his development, arriving early to practice and staying late to study game tape and playbooks with fellow rookies.

  • Ward's communication skills and enthusiasm for the game contribute to his engaging style, which has been positively received by teammates and coaches alike.

  • The Titans concluded their mandatory minicamp on June 12, 2025, marking the end of their offseason preparations before training camp begins on July 22, 2025.

  • The Titans are looking to improve after a disappointing 3-14 season in 2024, with their season opener scheduled against the Denver Broncos on September 7, 2025.
