Are Cam Ward and Calvin Ridley better than this?

Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Cam Ward has been extremely complimentary of his No. 1 receiver Calvin Ridley. Knowing he’d be drafted by the Titans, Ward even called Ridley “the best receiver in the league” during a now-deleted videogame stream.

Ward and Ridley immediately built a connection throughout OTAs and minicamp. There’s no denying who his go-to target will be throughout his rookie season. Expect Ward and Ridley to continue growing their chemistry once training camp rolls around in July.

Despite the impressive start to their relationship, the league-wide opinion remains low...

How good are the Titans at cornerback?

Last season, the Tennessee Titans went into the year incredibly confident in their secondary. Then-general manager Ran Carthon had acquired L’Jarius Sneed, Chido Awuzie, Jamal Adams, and Quandre Diggs, among others, during the offseason. Fans were even adamant about the Titans having one of the best secondaries in the entire league.

It blew up in Carthon’s face.

Sneed was limited to five appearances after signing a contract extension worth more than $76 million after arriving in a trade with the Kansas City Chiefs. As of this year’s mandatory minicamp, he was still dealing...

Titans rookie QB broke a ping pong battle after a loss

One of the things that is going to help Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Cam Ward reach his ceiling as an NFL quarterback is how competitive he is. That may seem like an oversimplification, but for an NFL player to be successful, especially a quarterback, is a drive to always win. Well, we have heard a lot about Ward’s competitiveness on the field, but it apparently extends to ping pong:

You love to see it.

Ward threw a couple of interceptions on the final day of minicamp. That might seem...

The Tennessee Titans will begin training camp in July

The Tennessee Titans hosted their final practice of mandatory minicamp on Thursday. The team will now break apart for a six-week (approximate) summer break. Head coach Brian Callahan met with the media ahead of Thursday’s conclusive session.

Callahan fielded questions about training camp. Callahan confirmed that the Titans will report to camp on July 22nd, per reporters in attendance. That day will be a maintenance day (physicals etc). On-field preparation for the 2025 campaign will begin the following day, on July 23rd.

Additional details will be revealed in July. How many...

The Titans wrap up minicamp today.

Today is the final day of Tennessee Titans' minicamp. After today, the players will be “off” until training camp starts on July 22nd. Brian Callahan said today that the players understand this isn’t a true vacation. They can maybe take a week or two, but after that, it will be about preparing for training camp. He emphasized to the players that this is a time to make sure they don’t lose the physical and mental gains they have made throughout the offseason program.

When talking about Cam Ward, Callahan said he has progressed throughout...

A new-look Jeffery Simmons arrives at Tennessee Titans minicamp

Tennessee Titans defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons has been one of the bigger talking points at mandatory minicamp. Firstly, Simmons was in attendance after skipping voluntary OTAs earlier in the offseason. Secondly, he quickly made his presence felt while trash-taking no. 1 overall quarterback Cam Ward during an eventful practice.

Simmons always draws a crowd and headlines. He also looked significantly different and slimmer. Simmons notes that he dropped 20 pounds in hopes of being a lighter, more effective and efficient pass rusher.

“I weighed in today on a good note,” Simmons...

More good reports on the #1 overall pick.

Today, the Tennessee Titans were on the field for their first day of minicamp. This will be the most extensive work the whole team gets before training camp opens next month. As I have said multiple times, we should all temper our expectations for the reports that come out during this period. We have seen far too many times where the reports are all glowing in these types of practices, only to see the wheels come off when the games start.

With that being said, the reports on Cam Ward continue to...

The Titans want more from L’Jarius Sneed

The Tennessee Titans began mandatory minicamp on Tuesday. Head coach Brian Callahan met with local reporters before the first of three practices. Arguably the most interesting comments made by Callahan were about cornerback L’Jarius Sneed.

Sneed won’t practice during the three-day camp. It represents the continuation of his non-involvement due to an injury dating back to the voluntary portions of the offseason. Titans fans should be concerned.

The Titans acquired Sneed from the Kansas City Chiefs last offseason in exchange for a third-round selection. They then signed him to an extension worth more...

Brian Callahan meets with the media before the opening of minicamp.

The Tennessee Titans kick off their mandatory minicamp today. This will wrapup the offseason program, and most of the players and staff will get out of town until training camp opens. As an aside, that is always a worrisome time for coaches and front offices as the players are off doing their own thing for a few weeks.

Callahan said that everyone is in attendance this week. It is good that they can the work in without any of the side-show contract distractions. He did say, however, that they...

Will the Tennessee Titans attempt to sign Roger McCreary to a contract extension?

The Tennessee Titans will report for a three-day mandatory minicamp this week. It represents the final time Brian Callahan’s squad will be together prior to training camp. With a near two-month summer break on the horizon, Titans general manager Mike Borgonzi could consider signing players on expiring contracts to extensions prior to camp marking its arrival.

Unlike this current offseason, the Titans have a handful of young, intriguing talents scheduled for free agency next summer. That list includes cornerback Roger McCreary, tight end Chig Okonkwo, and safety...

Always good to hear things like this on a rookie

Albert Breer had a lot of good things to say about Cam Ward’s leadership in today’s “Takeaways” article over at SI.com. As Breer points out, this does not necessarily translate to great play on the field, but it is good to hear that Ward is already putting in extra work before he has taken an NFL snap. My stance on everything with the Tennessee Titans is that I’m not going to get too high or too low based on anything off the field. I’ve been burned too many times.

With...

I’m a little surprised by this result.

This week’s reacts question was whether or not the Tennessee Titans did enough this offseason to surround Cam Ward with weapons. My opinion is that they did not, but 56% of you disagree with me and think they did enough:

There is no doubt the offensive line will be better, but not adding a quality receiver in free agency and waiting until day three of the 2025 NFL Draft to add any pass catchers didn’t seem like the best course of action for a rookie quarterback. Now, Calvin Ridley was really good last...
