Good news on the Cam Ward injury front today. Both Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport are reporting that the Tennessee Titans quarterback will not need surgery. He does have a sprained AC joint, but the doctors do not believe it will require him to go under the knife. That speeds up his rehab process tremendously.
We probably won’t get an official timeline with the season being over, but this is probably more of a 6-12 week recovery versus the four months plus that would have been required with surgery. That would have Ward available for OTAs with whoever the new coach is.
Ward also needs to spend some time this offseason working on his footwork. Being out until training camp would have made that extremely difficult. We know that Ward is going to put in the work. This outcome gets him ready to do that work a whole lot sooner.
We saw real progress from Ward in the last quarter of the season. He finished the season throwing for 3,169 yards with 15 touchdowns and seven interceptions. He also rushed for 159 yards and two touchdowns.
