2025 NFL Draft: Miami Hurricanes QB Cam Ward Selected 1st Overall by Tennessee Titans

Welcome to the NFL, Cam Ward!

With the first overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, the Tennessee Titans selected Miami Hurricanes QB Cam Ward.

Ward joins a prestigious fraternity as the #1 overall pick. He is the 3rd Miami player to ever be drafted #1 overall, joining Vinny Testaverde (1987) and Russell Maryland (1991) with that distinction. Ward joins RB Earl Campbell (1978) in being drafted #1 overall by the Tennessee Titans (though Campbell was drafted when the team was known as the Houston Oilers).

Ward is the highest drafted QB ever by the Titans, eclipsing the #2 overall pick used on Marcus Mariota 2015.
