Daboll Pushes Titans to Improve Downfield Passing Amid Ward's Preseason Struggles

Titans offensive coordinator Brian Daboll says the team’s downfield passing must improve, highlighted by Cam Ward’s uneven preseason (8-for-12, 69 yards) and a meager 1.2 average depth of target. Ward has faced accuracy issues while working with a revamped offense, and rookie Carnell Tate has been targeted but not yet produced. Daboll has focused on fundamentals and high-leverage situations (red zone/3rd down) as Ward develops, suggesting Ward may struggle to support multiple fantasy-reliable receivers in 2026.

Week 1 Preseason Sparks: Ward Under Pressure, Stribling Emerges, Mendoza Won’t Be Quick to Start

Week 1 Preseason Sparks: Ward Under Pressure, Stribling Emerges, Mendoza Won’t Be Quick to Start

Week 1 of NFL preseason offered a mix of measured takeaways: Cam Ward’s early struggles for the Titans aren’t a panic signal, De’Zhaun Stribling flashed breakout potential for the 49ers, Fernando Mendoza’s strong debut won’t instantly crown him Week 1 starter, Drew Allar impressed for the Steelers but remains far from a guaranteed QB1, and DJ Moore’s Bills debut hints at a much-needed upgrade to Buffalo’s passing game; QB battles in Atlanta and Cleveland still look unsettled, and much of this is preseason noise rather than guarantees for the regular season.

Allar shines for Steelers; Ward struggles for Titans in Week 1 preseason

Week 1 of the NFL preseason delivered a mix of bright debuts and rough outings. Steelers rookie Drew Allar stood out with 153 passing yards and three total touchdowns, while Titans QB Cam Ward had a mixed showing (5-of-12, 57 yards). Notable winners included Broncos receiver Courtland Sutton, Raiders hopeful Fernando Mendoza, and 49ers rookie De’Zhaun Stribling, along with Bengals hopeful Dohnte Meyers. On the flip side, Falcons faced off-field suspensions and a blowout loss, Patriots kicker Andy Borregales misfired multiple times in a 13-13 tie, Lions’ Isaac TeSlaa went without a catch, Colts’ Riley Leonard struggled against Patriots backups, and Chargers’ Trey Lance was outplayed by DJ Uiagalelei. As always in the preseason, results are initial and players have time to adjust.

Ward’s rough night in Titans’ preseason against 49ers backups

Titans rookie quarterback Cam Ward went 5-of-12 for 57 yards (56.6 passer rating) over three series in a preseason loss to San Francisco’s backups, with 2 rushing yards, an intentional grounding penalty, and a near interception. He did guide an 11-play, 95-yard opening drive that ended with Tony Pollard’s 5-yard TD run, but the Titans stalled on his final two drives (10 plays for 26 yards) before Mitchell Trubisky replaced him with 3:55 remaining before halftime. The Titans are hoping Ward makes a big jump in his second season.

Ward Shines as Titans Open Minicamp with Red-Zone Momentum

Day 1 of Tennessee's mandatory minicamp had Cam Ward looking sharper and more confident than at OTAs, delivering several red-zone completions to Daniel Bellinger and Wan'Dale Robinson before a late interception by Amani Hooker. Will Levis and Mitchell Trubisky also stood out, with Trubisky starting 8-for-8 and finishing around 12-of-16, and Levis going 7-of-13 for the day (62-of-95 in six open practices). Chimere Dike led receivers with four catches and a TD, Bellinger added four receptions, and rookies like Carnell Tate flashed. The Titans also welcomed new signees Jalyn Holmes and Andre James as they prepare for Day 2 on Wednesday.

Ward Shines, Tate Emerges in Titans' Third OTA

In Thursday’s third Titans OTA open to reporters, Cam Ward looked leaner and delivered several impressive throws as he led a late hurry-up drive that ended with a Carnell Tate TD; Will Levis and Hendon Hooker split reps with Levis going 10-of-14 and Hooker 8-of-12 with an interception. Tate stood out with three touchdowns and multiple catches, while undrafted Hank Beatty and Tyren Montgomery contributed, and several veterans were out since OTAs are voluntary. The Titans head into three more practices next week.
