  GREEN BAY, Wisc. -- University of Miami quarterback Cam Ward was selected with the first overall pick of the 2025 NFL Draft by the Tennessee Titans Thursday night. Ward became the third Hurricane to ever be selected No. 1 overall in the NFL Draft and the first since 1991, when defensive tackle Russell Maryland was taken by the Dallas Cowboys with the draft’s top pick. Quarterback Vinny Testaverde was also selected No. 1 overall in 1987 by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The first Hurricane to be selected in the first round since defensive ends Greg Rousseau and Jaelan Phillips in 2021, Ward won the Manning Award and the Davey O’Brien Award honoring the nation’s top quarterback after a prolific 2024 season with the Hurricanes. In addition to leading Miami to a 10-win season, Ward was a finalist for the Heisman Trophy and the winner of the ACC Player of the Year honor, a first for a Hurricane student-athlete.

Jim Wyatt,  Senior Writer/Editor Tennessee Titans.com NASHVILLE – The Titans lost their third straight game on Sunday – this one a sloppy, 36-22 loss to the Jaguars. Titans running back Derrick Henry ran for 121 yards in the contest. But on this day, the Titans didn't do much else right. The Titans turned the ball over four times in the game, including three times in the first half, which led to 17 points. "Nothing was good enough today," Titans coach Mike Vrabel said. "Yeah, we're frustrated. It sucks to lose." The Jaguars scored 29 straight points at one point in the contest before a Tennessee touchdown in the fourth quarter. But by then, it was too little, too late. While the Jaguars were harassing Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill, who was sacked four times, the Titans defense couldn't get to Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence, who wasn't sacked while throwing for 368 yards and three touchdowns. After starting the season 7-3, the Titans dropped...
