Titans quarterback Cam Ward showed off his arm in front of fans at Nissan Stadium. The wide receivers are feeling comfortable and ready to help the rookie.

Ward connected early and often with his new favorite wide receiver Calvin Ridley, starting with a touchdown pass in a 7-on-7 drill, and Ward's best play came on a scramble to his left and finding Ridley for a big TD catch as long as people ignore Jeffery Simmons likely would've had a sack.

If the Titans defensive line can play up to its high standard, the defense should be in line for a great season. The Titans will face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in their first preseason game on Aug. 9.

The Tennessee Titans are practicing without cornerback L'Jarius Sneed. Sneed spoke briefly with The Tennessean about his rehab and return.

The Titans were in a tailspin last year, going 3-14 with bottom-six finishes in both points scored and points allowed. They ended the season on a six-game losing streak. Quarterback Will Levis was benched late in the campaign for Mason Rudolph, and general manager Ran Carthon was let go after just two seasons.

There are a number of reasons why the Titans have become one of the NFL's most meager franchises in recent years. Quarterback issues such as the Will Levis debacle, an owner with a quick trigger on firings, and several first-round busts have all plagued the franchise.

We remember Tennessee Titans QB Steve McNair's spectacle against the Houston Texans in 2003, which is No. 13 on The Tennessean's best moments list.
