Bootleg Football on Cam Ward

Ward ranked 4th in pressure dropbacks but 15th in scrambles; new staff may unlock more leg usage.

Was fourth in pressure dropbacks but only 15th in scrambles last year, suggesting he restricted himself from using his legs under Callahan's system. The source notes this mirrors Caleb Williams' first-year approach of trying to prove himself as a pocket passer rather than a running quarterback. With a new offensive staff, there is potential for more balanced usage of his legs to take pressure off him and generate easy first downs, which could improve offensive rhythm and reduce the need for extended plays that led to inaccuracy.
