Yahoo Sports NFL on Cam Ward

Ward's disappointing start (40th-rated passer, 80.2 rating) continues struggles.

Cam Ward, the 2025 first overall pick, has had a disappointing start to his career. Mike Mulhern notes Ward was the 40th-rated passer as a rookie and matched that 80.2 rating in the Week 1 loss to the Jets, lacking the flashes of 'wow' moments fans can cling to for hope. Ryan Fowler adds that Ward's mechanics and process under center along with the correlating surroundings and structure of the offense was flat out ugly in Week 1, and expects a massive week for the Eagles defense given Ward is a primary pocket passer without the ability to extend plays like Jayden Daniels.
