Locked On Titans - Daily Podcast On The Tennessee Titans

The Tennessee Titans have complete OTAs and Cam Ward's struggles would make it seem like he is the biggest "loser" of the process. However, Ward's struggles are acceptable and expected. The real losers are the people who decided to give up on Ward based on a week of June practice. Carnell Tate was a massive winner, but some are saying that Tate doesn't deserve credit if Ward can't get blame. That is illogical as a rookie wide receiver should not be judged the same as a second-year quarterback in a new system. On offense, other winners include names like Nick Singleton, Chim Dike, Xavier Restrepo & Austin Schlottman, but there are losers as well like the Titans rookie offensive linemen. On defense, Kevin Winston and Marcus Harris are big winners in the secondary, but Femi Oladejo remains a massive loser after missing the entire OTA process.

Second-year Tennessee Titans quarterback Cam Ward faced an up-and-down final stretch of OTA sessions. In this episode, we deliver a reality check on why fans shouldn't overreact to June practice reps while learning a brand-new playbook. We provide a comprehensive evaluation of the final OTA practices, track the quarterback competition, and discuss whether the media is criminally overlooking Chim Dike's value in a stacked wide receiver room.

The Tennessee Titans wrapped up their third week of organized team activities on Thursday and it featured another less-than-stellar performance from Cam Ward. It may not have been a good week for Ward, but practices in June in these circumstances should not shake the faith the fan base has in their quarterback as that faith was built on a foundation of real games, not summer sessions. Robert Saleh came out in support of his young quarterback prior to practice as well. Cam's second-year teammates have been shining though. Gunnar Helm, Chim Dike, Kevin Winston and Marcus Harris all seem to be making plays in their improved roles. Finally, as mandatory mini-camp is set for next week, this practice saw the return of more veteran players like Alontae Taylor, Calvin Ridley and Jeffery Simmons. At least in some capacity. Having the full team together next week will be critical.

Cam Ward has caught some flack as of late for his less-than-stellar performances in Tennessee Titans OTAs, but people calling him a bust are simply doing so in bad faith. It lacks nuance and perspective and a simple look at some other recent examples shows Cam Ward is doing exactly what he should be. Looking at other players in OTAs, the wide receiver battle is as hotly contested as ever and this is relatively new territory for Titans fans as the receiver group is as deep as ever, but it isn't just receivers. Tight ends and a rookie running back have also stepped up. On defense, the Titans youngest players have been most impressive, but some veterans have also used these summer sessions to make an early impression.

Cam Ward had another up and down day at Tennessee Titans OTAs with a tough start but a solid finish. This is the perfect time of year for growing pains as Ward learns a new offense and adapts to his new weapons. It is not the perfect time of year to freak out and lose faith in Ward's future. Another big piece of news on the day was the status of Carnell Tate. Tate has been balling out in OTAs, but missed practice Tuesday with a bruise. Apparently, it is not a major concern, but it did allow other wide receivers to step up like Chim Dike and Xavier Restrepo. Finally, the defense made some plays as well with Micah Robinson getting an interception and Keldric Faulk getting another sack.

OTAs are underway for the Titans, and the position battles are heating up—especially for the backup quarterback role. Veteran Mitch Trubisky seems to have a slight edge over Will Levis, highlighting the critical importance of finding a reliable second-in-command for starter Cam Ward. Plus, we break down expectations for veterans Jermaine Johnson and Calvin Ridley heading into the upcoming season.

The Tennessee Titans got back out on the practice field on Monday and once again Carnell Tate was making big plays. Tate had another downfield catch from Cam Ward and at this point it is hard not to get overly excited about what the young pairing can do when the football counts. On defense, one thing all fans should have been watching for is Kevin Winston. The second year safety could be a star and he made a star play by intercepting Cam Ward in the red zone. Jermaine Johnson also made his debut at OTAs and his presence is critical for the Titans defense. Outside of Ward, it sounds like Mitch Trubisky had a good day in his debut while Will Levis once again struggled at times. However, that didn't stop some young receivers from making some noise, like Bryce Oliver.

The Tennessee Titans will hit the field again next week for some organized team activities and all eyes will remain on Carnell Tate, who has been the standout story so far of offseason practices. Tate needs to keep progressing though and hearing him have success in multiple ways is the best outcome possible. Also, it would be nice to hear Cam Ward had a sharper week as he learns more about the playbook. Staying on offense, watching the position battles on the offensive line will be key, even in an unpadded environment. Also, depth battles at running back and wide receiver will continue to garner interest. Finally, on defense, Femi Oladejo needs to return and seeing the young linebackers continue to flash will be paramount.

Training camp is around the corner, and several Titans are entering a make-or-break summer. With key position groups still up for grabs, who will solidify their spot on the roster? Plus, ESPN’s latest FPI rankings have Tennessee sitting at 27th overall. Is that fair or foul? We debate that and more in this week’s episode of the Titans Squad Show.

The Tennessee Titans have had an issue at wide receiver since trading away AJ Brown, but with Carnell Tate emerging early on as a potential alpha weapon, the Titans might have fixed that problem for the foreseeable future. An elite version of Tate, combined with Wan'Dale Robinson and future additions, is quite the talent collection and is already one of the better groups in the AFC. A big part of maximizing the wide receiver group will be the performance of offensive coordinator Brian Daboll. Daboll having a good season with the Titans could lead to his departure, but if he leaves after only one year, that would hinder Cam Ward's development. Two years is a good outcome though and gives Daboll time to train his replacement. Finally, the Titans have a lot of unsung veterans who they will need to make an impact this season and they are mostly underdiscussed. Identifying and getting good play out of the unsung vets is what every fan should be hoping for.
