Saleh to stick with Ward, give QB 'every opportunity' despite struggles

Tennessee head coach Robert Saleh announced that Cam Ward will remain the team's starting quarterback, ensuring the rookie will be given every opportunity to play through his ongoing struggles. The decision comes in the wake of an embarrassing 26-3 offensive performance and loss to the Houston Texans.

Despite the team's offensive difficulties, the coaching staff is maintaining its commitment to Ward as the starter. The move indicates a developmental focus for the franchise, backing the quarterback publicly even as the unit faces mounting scrutiny following the lopsided defeat.
