Cam Ward completed 26-of-40 attempts for 304 yards, two touchdowns, and a fumble in the Titans’ 43-36, Week 8 loss to the Bengals, adding seven carries for 41 yards. 2026-11-01 17:00:03 Ward also added a two-point conversion on the ground. The Titans offense got off to a fast start, leading 13-0 after one quarter. Ward finished the day passing for 304 yards, averaging 7.6 yards per attempt and surpassing 300 yards for the first time in his career. He made plays with his legs, scrambling for multiple first downs on short-yardage situations. A sack-fumble from Ward led to a Bengals score the other way in the third quarter and the 24-year-old also took a long sack towards the end of regulation to send the game into overtime. The Titans could not convert a fourth down in overtime to close the game. Ultimately, Ward had one of the best games of his season against the Bengals but came up short. For fantasy purposes, Ward’s work on the ground is encouraging for his elevated floor and an improved passing skillset makes him a fantasy QB2 heading into the Titans’ Week 9 bye. |

Cam Ward completed 20-of-31 attempts for 181 yards and an interception in the Titans’ Week 7 loss to the Browns. 2026-10-25 17:00:02 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 being what they are. 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 completed 11-of-22 passes for 102 yards, one touchdown and an interception in the Titans’ 26-20, Week 6 win over the Colts. 2026-10-18 18:00:03 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. |

Titans head coach Robert Saleh said he had a “cool conversation” with Cam Ward. 2026-10-14 13:00:02 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. |

Titans head coach Robert Saleh said Titans pass catchers and the team’s defense are to blame for Cam Ward’s sloppy footwork. 2026-09-30 13:00:02 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. |
