Dating back to last season, his seven games of 150 passing yards or fewer is the most in that time span after tossing 19 completions on Sunday for 140 yards and a touchdown. He was under pressure on 39% of his dropbacks against the Jets with an average time to pressure of 2.22, which is going to be tough on any quarterback.

Ward struggles with protection: 39% pressure rate, 140 yards in Week 1; seven sub-150-yard games.

Despite having a skill set worth liking, Ward has shown little improvement since the Titans drafted him first overall in 2025. Dating back to last season, his seven games of 150 passing yards or fewer is the most in that span; in Week 1 against the Jets, he completed 19 passes for 140 yards and a touchdown. While his ball placement continues to be an issue, the Titans' offensive line is a major culprit—he was under pressure on 39% of his dropbacks with an average time to pressure of 2.22 seconds. Tennessee's efforts to improve weaponry alongside Ward are insufficient to combat the protection issues.
