Cam Ward Delivers Breakout Showing in Titans’ Week 12 Loss to Seahawks

A career-best PFF grade with zero turnovers underscores Tennessee’s shift to a development-first finish.

Overview

  • Tennessee fell 30-24 to Seattle to drop to 1-10, extending an already lost season focused on long-term growth.
  • Rookie Cam Ward went 28-of-42 for 256 yards with a touchdown, added 37 rushing yards with his first NFL rushing score, and logged a third straight game without an interception.
  • Ward earned a career-high 78.7 PFF grade and posted his first positive EPA game of the season despite four sacks and frequent pressure from a top defense.
  • Interim coach Mike McCoy praised Ward’s progress and set the next step as getting the ball out faster to avoid unnecessary hits.
  • Rookies continued to contribute — Chimere Dike had a 90-yard punt-return TD and 232 all-purpose yards, Gunnar Helm made six catches, Kevin Winston Jr. led with 10 tackles, and Marcus Harris drew PFF’s top defensive grade — as penalties and protection issues linger and the Titans remain atop the 2026 draft order.
