Bootleg Football on Cam Ward

Ward's 4 deep attempts and zero tight-window completions show extreme reluctance.

Drake May reports Cam Ward has only four deep pass attempts (20+ yards) and eight completions over 10 yards all season, compared to Bryce Young (26), Trevor Lawrence (25), and Tyler Shuck (24) from his draft class; he is the only starting QB with 30+ dropbacks that has fewer tight window attempts than Patrick Mahomes, and has not completed a single tight window attempt. Despite an offensive line that has improved substantially (allowing only four pressure dropbacks in week three vs. 16 in week one) and a time to throw of 2.9 seconds with minimal pressure, Ward is not throwing downfield or attempting tight window throws.
