I had Cam Ward 18 of 29 overall today. No 7 on 7 today. All move periods. No TDs, but no turnovers. Overall a pretty good day for QB1.

[Terry McCormick @terrymc13]

Jeffery Simmons on his contract situation: This organization has been nothing but good to me. When it comes to the contract, I'll everything play out. When it comes to the contract, my agent (Todd France) and the team will get it worked out.

Jeffery Simmons said he is motivated to come back in the best shape of his life.

[Terry McCormick @terrymc13]

Pretty solid day from Cam Ward in the scrimmage. Directed several field goal drives, and Joey Slye was spot on with several good kicks, including one in a cross wind that hit the crossbar and bounced over from about 57 yards.

[Terry McCormick @terrymc13]

Xavier Restrepo made an insane catch one-handed at the 1 yard line from Mitch Trubisky for first and goal. Best play of the day.

[Terry McCormick @terrymc13]

In the final period of the day, second team is up in 2 minute, Mitch Trubisky leaves the period with some sort of issue and is replaced by Will Levis for the final two plays.

[Terry McCormick @terrymc13]

Aaron Whitecotton said Femi Oladejo has been there the whole off-season. Said he is doing a great job of soaking up the information of playing as a rush end.

[Terry McCormick @terrymc13]

Greg Lewis said he felt Chimere Dike and Eric Ayomanor had their ups and downs as rookies and that they can work on developing into fuller receivers this season.

[Terry McCormick @terrymc13]

Titans WR coach Greg Lewis: Our job is to make plays and make the quarterback's job easier.

[Terry McCormick @terrymc13]

Tierney: An accurate passer to me is someone who can execute the play-call and the intent of the play. Completion percentage lies a lot.

[Terry McCormick @terrymc13]

Titans QB coach Shea Tierney said there are things you can do to make a quarterback more accurate and consistent. Said watching slowed down video of their mechanics is one way to work on it, then working on it in practice.
