Quarterback Cam Ward is progressing on schedule in his rehab after injuring his right throwing shoulder in January and is trending toward throwing at the Tennessee Titans' June minicamp. Titans general manager Mike Borgonzi said Ward has been out working and looks good in videos of his throws. Ward resumed throwing in mid-March with his personal quarterbacks coach, Darrell Colbert Jr., of Select QB Athletics. The shoulder injury was diagnosed as a sprained right AC joint and did not require surgery. Known details: - Ward resumed throwing in mid-March with personal quarterbacks coach Darrell Colbert Jr. of Select QB Athletics. - The injury occurred on Jan. 4 when Ward landed awkwardly on a touchdown run and was diagnosed as a sprained right AC joint that did not require surgery. - Titans general manager Mike Borgonzi said Ward is trending toward throwing at the team's June minicamp. - Through Week 17, Ward had been the only NFL quarterback on the field for all of his team's offensive snaps and finished the season with 3,169 passing yards, 15 touchdowns and 7 interceptions. - Getting on the field with new offensive coordinator Brian Daboll and quarterbacks coach Shea Tierney in June is intended to help Ward grasp the offense before training camp in late July.
