Titans HC Hypes Cam Ward's Confidence of Being Drafted No. 1 But 'Open to Everything'

Tennessee Titans head coach Brian Callahan was impressed with Miami quarterback Cam Ward's "confidence" in being the potential No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft.

“I like confidence," Callahan said, per NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. "I think that’s a good thing. When you’re in the conversation for the No. 1 pick there’s a lot that comes with it. To have fun with that is a good thing.”

The Titans still appear to be mulling their options with the top pick, though Callahan revealed the Titans are "two weeks away-ish" from making their decision on the first pick, per ESPN's Turron Davenport.

"We're open to everything at this point," Callahan said, per Davenport. "If it's something you feel is beyond the value you ever thought you could get that's one thing. But you also have to look at what a potential quarterback could look like. Those guys, to me, are priceless."

While the Titans may not be locked in on Ward with the No. 1 pick, they've been heavily involved with the Hurricanes signal-caller throughout the pre-draft process.

"We spent a lot of time with him, handled pretty much all of the touchpoints," Callahan said, per Davenport. "We'll use all of the ones available to us."

Titans president of football operations Chad Brinker, general manager Mike Borgonzi and Callahan were among the members of the organization present at Miami's pro day to watch Ward throw on March 24.

The Titans still appear to be considering their choices with the top pick but they won't trade down easily, as they're reportedly seeking three first-round picks to move off the No. 1 spot.

Ward wrapped up an impressive senior season at Miami in 2024, completing 67.2 percent of his passes for 4,313 yards and 39 touchdowns compared to just seven interceptions.

Tennessee was projected to add him with the No. 1 overall pick in the latest mock draft from Bleacher Report's NFL Scouting Department.

Callahan praised Ward on Monday, but the Titans don't seem to be completely committed to selecting him at No. 1 just yet.
