Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Cam Ward may not have posted the best numbers this season, but he’s shown flashes of being a true franchise quarterback.
Ward’s rookie season started off rocky, only throwing for two touchdown passes in the first five games of the season. He’s gotten better throughout the season, and heading into the Titans’ season finale, he’s thrown for two touchdowns in each of the last four games.
As the Titans are currently taking on the Jaguars, they will look to spoil Jacksonville’s chances at winning the AFC South title. The Titans had a promising start, scoring on its first offensive possession, before Ward left the game with an injury.

They’re calling it a shoulder injury. Lands hard on the side of his right shoulder with the defender falling on top. Common mechanism for an AC joint sprain. Hope he’s okay pic.twitter.com/lBB7zyQ1Ok
