The Tennessee Titans lost to the New York Giants after Cam Ward threw a red-zone interception with under 30 seconds left. Coach Robert Saleh said Ward should have been “smarter with the football” and ruled out benching him.
With less than 30 seconds remaining, Tennessee had first-and-goal at the Giants’ eight-yard line and two timeouts. Ward was outside the pocket when he threw into coverage, and safety Jevón Holland intercepted the pass. Saleh said Ward could have run or gone out of bounds rather than force a throw.
