On Thursday, legendary Tennessee Titan Chris Johnson expressed his enthusiasm for the team’s newest addition, quarterback Cam Ward. Johnson, known affectionately as CJ2K, voiced his thoughts shortly after Ward was selected, asserting that the organization is ready for a transformative phase.
Speaking exclusively to TMZ Sports, Johnson discussed the implications of the recent NFL Draft. He noted he was initially leaning towards a different prospect, Travis Hunter, but ultimately acknowledged the critical need for a quarterback to guide the team. “We needed a quarterback,” Johnson stated, highlighting the strategic importance of Ward’s selection.
Johnson believes that if Ward performs his role effectively, he will find considerable success in Tennessee. “Go there and guide us the right way, and we have your back,” he encouraged, emphasizing the support Ward can expect from both the team and the fans.
Additionally, Johnson reached out to the Titans’ fanbase. He expressed confidence that the loyal supporters would embrace Ward, stating, “They’re just going to ride with you. You get there, you do the right thing, they’ll definitely ride with you.” He added that while pressure is inevitable, particularly for a quarterback, proper preparation can mitigate this stress.
Recalling past experiences, Johnson referenced Vince Young’s entry into the NFL, suggesting that Ward can learn from previous Titans quarterbacks. “He comes in and gets in there early, he studies and figures out what they want to do,” Johnson advised, suggesting that commitment and hard work will pave the way for Ward’s success.
As the Titans embark on this new journey with Cam Ward, the anticipation grows for what the future holds. Good luck, Cam!
