Titans Remain Committed to Cam Ward Despite Struggles

The Tennessee Titans are standing by quarterback Cam Ward, despite his struggles this season, as confirmed by head coach Robert Saleh following the team's 26-3 loss to Houston, which left them at 0-5.

Ward, the former No. 1 overall pick, has a record of 3-19 in his first 22 NFL starts. While Saleh believes that benching Ward would not address the team's broader issues, concerns remain about his performance metrics, including a low EPA per dropback and yards per attempt.

Historically, many first-round quarterbacks have faced similar challenges early in their careers, with some eventually improving significantly. As the Titans consider their options for the 2027 draft, they must weigh the potential of drafting another quarterback against their commitment to Ward, who needs to demonstrate consistent improvement in the remaining games of the season.
