Cam Ward throws at pro day - Should be all Titans need to see - ESPN

CORAL GABLES, Fla. — Quarterback Cam Ward believes he has «solidified» himself as the top overall pick in next month's NFL draft, he said Monday following Miami's pro day.

The Heisman Trophy finalist worked out in front of more than 90 NFL team staffers, including a full contingent from the Tennessee Titans, who own the No. 1 pick. At one point during his workout, Ward completed a pass and was seen speaking to Titans general manager Mike Borgonzi and president of football operations Chad Brinker after the play.

The gist of his message: I'll see you next month.

Ward set multiple school records in his lone season with the Hurricanes in 2024, including the single-season records for passing yards, completions, passing touchdowns and completion percentage. In his final collegiate game, he became the all-time FCS and FBS combined leader in passing touchdowns with 158.

The former zero-star recruit out of West Columbia (Texas) enrolled at Incarnate Word in 2020 and threw for 6,908 yards and 71 touchdowns in just 19 games over two seasons. He transferred to Washington State before the 2022 season, and threw for another 6,966 yards and 48 touchdowns against 16 interceptions in two seasons before transferring again to Miami.

Ward said he believed he could be the top pick in the NFL draft ever since his days at Incarnate Word, but knew he had to prove it beyond the FCS level — hence, his transfers to Washington State and Miami.
