The first day of training camp in pads Tuesday was not kind to Cam Ward.<\/p>\n
The West Columbia native and NFL\u2019s No. 1 overall pick in April did not have his best stuff. After a stellar first few days of camp, the Tennessee Titans quarterback completed 6 of 17 passes and threw three interceptions during team periods, according to The Tennessean, on the first physical day of camp in full pads.<\/p>\n
