I haven\u2019t done a lot of research around the league, but that seems pretty rare. Maybe the NFL only had time to make three C\u2019s to go with the new uniforms.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Cam Ward is the offensive captain. No surprise there. You can question plenty of things about Ward, but not his leadership. Since the Titans drafted him, he has said and done everything you would want your quarterback to say and do. Now, he just has to play well on the field.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Jeffery Simmons is your defensive captain. Again, no surprise. He\u2019s the heart and soul of the team.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1upudxki _174s0un1 _174s0un0 _1mt21p01\">Morgan Cox is your special teams captain. Three for three, as no surprises go. He\u2019s been one of the best long snappers in the league for a very long time now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Tennessee Titans have announced their captains for the 2026 season.
