A Week 1 starter after the Titans made him the top pick in the 2025 draft, Ward doesn't have much to show for his rookie year other than experience. His on-target and completion percentages both ranked 31st in the league, and those came with rarely throwing the ball deep as just 8.1 percent of his attempts traveled 20-plus yards (28th). The result was a league-low 5.9 YPA and 15 TD passes in 17 games. Ward didn't have much help. Titans receivers dropped 24 passes (26th), and the offensive line allowed a league-high 13 unblocked sacks as he was brought down 55 times (2nd most). He also didn't capitalize on the pressure with scramble yards (less than 10 rushing yards per game), but instead fumbled 11 times, including a league-high seven lost. Coach Brian Callahan didn't survive midseason, adding to the instability. The Titans hired defensive-minded head coach Robert Saleh, with former Giants HC Brian Daboll the new offensive coordinator. Daboll didn't impress in New York as head coach, but his offensive scheme should at least be better than what Ward endured last year. The Titans signed Wan'Dale Robinson and drafted Carnell Tate fourth overall, giving Ward a pair of wide receivers with potential to offer huge upgrades. If Calvin Ridley returns healthy from a broken leg, that's a third capable starter, or at least someone to compete with second-year pros Chimere Dike and Elic Ayomanor. The situation has improved considerably since last year, but Ward's lack of rushing means he'll need huge gains in passing efficiency just to become a decent QB2 for fantasy.
