Disruptive pass rush in Week 9 loss
Ward logged four tackles (two solo), including 2.5 sacks, during the Titans' 27-20 loss to the Chargers on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Ward contributed to three of the Titans' six sacks Sunday, two of which were solo takedowns of Justin Herbert in the second and fourth quarters. The veteran pass rusher did not record a sack through the first six games of the regular season, but he has accumulated 3.5 sacks over his last three games while seeing more defensive snaps due to the absence of rookie second-rounder Oluwafemi Oladejo (leg - IR).

With RB Saquon Barkley departing for a division rival in the offseason, the Giants are left without an identity on offense in 2024. Much will fall on QB Daniel Jones to live up to his massive contract.
After Kirk Cousins was allowed to walk in free agency, one of Sam Darnold or rookie J.J. McCarthy will be under center for the Vikings in 2024, but the offense again will revolve around WR Justin Jefferson.
With Von Miller out for the season, A.J. Epenesa, who has been highly effective over the last two weeks, is the next man up as a key pass rusher for the Bills.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2021
2016
Ward played in all 17 games for the Giants last season and started 11 of them, finishing with career-best marks of 43 tackles, four pass defenses and two forced fumbles while also notching three sacks. Though it was his first year in New York, it was his third campaign in defensive coordinator Wink Martindale's system, where he's proven to be a nice fit. It's no surprise, then, that the Giants re-signed Ward in the offseason. He's not a star but will be a part of the team's pass-rush rotation behind Kayvon Thibodeaux and Azeez Ojulari.
