Cam Ward has to build some momentum during training camp that can carry into his first season with the Tennessee Titans.

Ward connected early and often with his new favorite wide receiver Calvin Ridley, starting with a touchdown pass in a 7-on-7 drill, and Ward's best play came on a scramble to his left and finding Ridley for a big TD catch as long as people ignore Jeffery Simmons likely would've had a sack.

The Titans were in a tailspin last year, going 3-14 with bottom-six finishes in both points scored and points allowed. They ended the season on a six-game losing streak. Quarterback Will Levis was benched late in the campaign for Mason Rudolph, and general manager Ran Carthon was let go after just two seasons.
