Cam Ward's rocky start to Year 2 continued with just three points in three drives of action; his 5.8 yards per attempt mark was inflated by Tony Pollard's 33-yard uncovered pass to the flats. Ward joins Packers backup Tyrod Taylor as the only two signal-callers without a completion on a pass thrown 10 yards downfield this preseason (min. 5 attempts), which is not ideal heading into the regular season.NegativeProjectionAug 24, 2026

Cam Ward's preseason results were not great; his three gains of 10-plus yards featured a combined six air yards (screens and open underneath passes), and a scramble-turned-intentional-grounding was particularly brutal. Source notes 'There's no need to write off the man's career based on three preseason drives, but it was a rough first impression of the new Ward-Daboll partnership.'PositiveValueAug 13, 2026
