NASHVILLE — Cam Ward talks so much that Tennessee Titans coach Brian Callahan asked the rookie quarterback if he needed to wait on him to finish before calling a play during practice.

The answer?

Nope. Ward listens even while talking.

He proved how closely he pays attention by never missing a beat while running the next play.

“He enters right into the huddle, and he calls the play and doesn’t screw up the play call, and I thought that was actually kind of remarkable,” Callahan said. “I know I couldn’t do that.”
