The Tennessee Titans drafted Miami quarterback Cam Ward with the first overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft, which surprised nobody.
Ward, 22, has been linked to the Titans for months. Both the team and Ward have hinted that he would be the first overall pick.
“I’ve worked so hard for this moment,” Ward said immediately after being drafted. “I was just a little kid who wanted it.”
Most mock drafts had the Titans selecting Ward, and most draft analysts had Ward as the highest-ranked quarterback in the draft class.
