Cam Ward signed his rookie deal with the Tennessee Titans on Wednesday, settling on a four-year, $48.75 million contract that includes a massive $32.1 million signing bonus. His contract is fully guaranteed and includes a fifth-year option due to his status as a first-round pick.Fans were impressed to see the rookie earning such a high amount in his first deal, especially as the total number was always capped previously:"HOLY BAGGGGG," commented one fan."That’s insane. Even if he’s a bust, he’s set for life," wrote a second fan."Hope he lives up to the hype, promising future ahead," was another opinion.Ward already has his jersey number secured. He'll get to keep his No. 1 jersey from the Miami Hurricanes.The Tennessee Titans had previously retired the number after their former quarterback Warren Moon. However, Moon gave Ward the blessing to un-retire the number and use it in the NFL.Cam Ward, Titans won't play any primetime games in the 2025 seasonThose who wish to watch the No. 1 pick play on national television will have to wait, at least, until the 2026 season. The NFL released its official schedule over the past week and the Titans will play zero primetime games.Former wide receiver Michael Irvin voiced his displeasure with the move on The Rich Eisen Show."I'm really disappointed in the NFL to give the Tennessee Titans no primetime games when they have the No. 1 pick. I don’t think they’ve done that too often throughout history, not giving him one of the 17 weeks to showcase in primetime the No. 1 pick."The Titans finished the 2024 season with a 3-14 record. Although they were considered a dark horse for an AFC Wild Card berth, the lack of consistent quarterback play from second-year quarterback Will Levis did not help them throughout the season.
