Cam Ward's dad had a relatable reaction to a late drop in the Titans' 20-12 loss to the Broncos in Week 1.

Ward, the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL draft, made his regular-season debut on Sunday, and his offense struggled mightily against Denver's defense. The team's receivers had several key drops, and after a late one, Ward's dad had clearly had enough.

The play came as Tennessee faced second-and-10 on its own 36-yard line, trailing 20-12 wth 55 seconds remaining. Ward dropped back and hit a wide-open Calvin Ridley in his hands, but he couldn't come up with the ball. It was a straight drop, and a bad one.

This was the elder Ward's reaction to the drop.
