Tennessee Titans live updates: News, highlights from NFL training camp practice Day 5
The Tennessee Titans return to the practice field July 30 for their fifth training camp practice of the 2025 preseason, putting quarterback Cam Ward, receiver Calvin Ridley, defensive tackles Jeffery Simmons and T'Vondre Sweat and more on the field for another day of prep. Practice on July 29 was the team's first in full pads, and it resulted in a fairly decisive win for the defense, at least in team periods. Defenders picked off Ward three times and forced a fumble, while the offensive line succumbed to fairly consistent pressure from Simmons and company. That said, the offensive line held an advantage in 1-on-1 pass rush drills against the defensive line and the offensive skill players fared well in 7-on-7 practice. The Titans opened camp on July 23 and have practiced three times since, including once in front of fans at Nissan Stadium. The buildup to training camp and the first week of it have been eventful, with quarterback Will Levis opting to have season-ending shoulder surgery, outside linebacker Lorenzo Carter retiring and receiver Treylon Burks being waived after injuring his shoulder in practice on July 26. The Titans will practice twice more this week — Saturday and Sunday. In Week 3, they will head to Tampa for their first joint practice session and their first preseason game. The Tennessean is on hand at Wednesday' practice and will be providing live updates. Follow along below for the latest news, color and happenings from training camp. ROSTER PROJECTION: Tennessee Titans roster projection: How 53-man depth chart looks after training camp Week 1 TITANS FAN SURVEY: What do you think of Brian Callahan? What about Cam Ward? Nissan Stadium? Vote in our fan survey! Tennessee Titans training camp practice updates today Quick Wednesday camp observations from Gentry Estes Calvin Ridley cramping late in practice As noted below, Calvin Ridley walked off the field after trainers checked on his lower right leg after pulling up in the final team period. Titans WR coach Tyke Tolbert said after practice that it was just cramping for the veteran receiver. Cam Ward, Titans offense in team period Today's 11-on-11 action: First drive: Cam Ward opens by missing an open Calvin Ridley before hitting Ridley on a RPO sidearm toss for a first-down gain. After that, Ward had back-to-back passes batted down near the line of scrimmage. (Femi Oladejo and Xavier Woods get credit for the PBUs.) As Brian Callahan noted earlier this AM, the ball is moving along as the offense progresses up the field to give a little more tempo to the proceedings. Red zone period: Cam Ward opens the red zone period with an interception to Roger McCreary after the ball was deflected by Cody Barton. He follows with an incompletion, with the pass broken up by Darrell Baker Jr. After a Tony Pollard carry, Ward is forced into a coverage "sack". Not a great sequence for the offense. Final team period: Calvin Ridley pulled up on the first play and walked off with team trainers. Ridley was limping but didn't need assistance. Trainers were looking at his lower right leg, and it shows all the signs of cramping late in the second padded practice of camp. From there, Chig Okonkwo had a drop and Ward completed a pass to Elic Ayomanor for a first-down gain. The period wraps with a Femi Oladejo "sack" of Ward. Cam Ward stats in Titans 7-on-7 Today's 7-on-7 action for Cam Ward: Back-to-back completions on short passes to tight ends Chig Okonkwo and David Martin-Robinson. Completion to Tyler Lockett up the seam. Short completions to Elic Ayomanor and Tyjae Spears (on a checkdown after a long time browsing). Incompletions to Jha'Quan Jackson and Calvin Ridley on vertical routes, with the Jackson incompletion on a drop. Short completion to new receiver Matt Landers on an out. Cam Ward, Calvin Ridley connect early in team period Cam Ward hits Calvin Ridley on a 30-yard completion despite double coverage on a corner route, the best of the early throws in team so far today. (No video highlights allowed during team periods, for what it's worth.) Cam Ward, QBs getting loose Brian Callahan press conference notes Brian Callahan on Cam Ward bouncing back from a not-good practice yesterday: "It's the name of the game." More Callahan: "You want guys to not have a governor on and not have to be worried about making mistakes, because that generally tends to be a pretty poor mindset to perform in." Callahan likes Ward's command of the offense but wants to improve the offense's tempo overall. It was a "pretty good day" for the offensive line overall in 1-on-1s on Tuesday, Callahan said. Callahan on Xavier Restrepo: "There's something about him as a football player that you can't measure, necessarily. He just has a knack for finding space and getting open, and the ball tends to find him." Restrepo made a big play on Tuesday. More Callahan on Restrepo: "X is kind of like Cam's shadow." Levis texted Callahan on Tuesday that everything went well with Levis' shoulder surgery. Blake Hance remains out for Wednesday's practice with a calf issue. Brian Callahan press conference stream Brian Callahan is scheduled to speak to the media at 7:40 a.m. ahead of practice on Wednesday. Watch it below.

Arm Q1 2026 Earnings Preview: Royalty Ramp in Focus
Arm will release fiscal first-quarter results after the bell on July 30, 2025. Consensus targets call for 12% revenue growth but a 13% drop in EPS versus Q1 2025. Shares are up 32% YTD, a move powered by AI and IoT demand. Royalty backlog and AI demand are the key watch-points. Remaining performance obligations were $2.23 billion at the end of Q4 FY25, down 10% YoY as prior deals converted to revenue. Management has called the drop timing-related and says growing Armv9 use in cloud and automotive will lift royalties through FY 2026. An update on large AI-accelerator licenses now in negotiation could refill RPO and restore confidence in the full-year sales range. Investors also want proof that a richer royalty mix can keep operating margin in the mid-40s while R&D rises to defend IP. Arm trades at 91 forward P/E and 35 forward P/S. A clean beat with upbeat AI and IoT commentary could keep that premium intact, but a renewed guide cut or slower royalty run-rate might cap any post-print upside.

Regular passports valid, touts spreading fake info: RPO chief
Pune: Passport agents and touts are exploiting the launch of e-passports to spread false information that regular passports are no longer valid, said Arjun Deore, regional passport officer at Pune RPO, on vested interests trying to drum up unnecessary business, there have been instances where citizens were misled into believing they need to replace their existing valid passports immediately with e-passports."There is misinformation circulating among people. Citizens with passports valid for several years are being told that their documents are no longer valid because 'passport' offices are now issuing e-passports. There are vested interests — certain agents who want to generate new applicants — who are spreading this kind of misinformation," said warning comes as Pune RPO (regional passport office) has now transitioned to issuing only e-passports since the first week of May 2025, making it one of the major passport offices in India to implement the new technology under the Passport Seva Programme 2.0. "All passports that we have been issuing since the first week of May are e-passports," Deore Pune RPO chief emphasised that citizens should not fall for these misleading claims. "Unless your passport is damaged or invalid, it remains perfectly acceptable for use. Only those who genuinely need new passports — those with expired passports, exhausted pages or damaged documents — should apply. Citizens should not apply merely for the novelty of having an e-passport," he per the ministry of external affairs, all regular passports issued under the previous Passport Seva Programme 1.0 remain completely valid and can continue to be used for travel purposes, subject to normal validity periods and other provisions under the Passports Act, e-passport rollout at Pune RPO is part of a nationwide expansion of the technology, which was initially piloted in smaller offices in Nagpur and Bhubaneswar last year before being extended to major regional the digital nomenclature, e-passports are still physical booklets identical to regular passports, with one crucial addition — an embedded RFID (radio frequency identification) chip that stores passport data securely."The term e-passport does not mean it can be downloaded to a mobile phone or any digital device. It remains a physical booklet. The only difference is that it contains an embedded chip," explained Deore. The booklet features a distinctive chip logo on the front cover though the actual chip is located on a different page chip technology, similar to that used in debit cards, enables automated identity verification at immigration counters and significantly enhances security by making tampering extremely RPO wins national awardRegional Passport Office, Pune, received the first prize for "innovative steps and citizen-centric initiatives" during the recent Passport Seva Divas celebration.

Madras High Court orders reissue of NTK leader Seeman's lost passport
Observing that politicians would naturally have criminal cases pending against them and that, by itself, cannot be a ground to deny passport, the Madras High Court on Monday (July 21, 2025) directed the Regional Passport Officer in Chennai to reissue the lost passport of Naam Tamilar Katchi (NTK) leader S. Seeman within four weeks. Justice N. Anand Venkatesh allowed a writ petition filed by the party leader and quashed an order passed by the RPO refusing to reissue the passport. He pointed out that a Division Bench of the High Court had already held that the permission of criminal courts is not required to seek the renewal/reissuance of passports. Individuals facing criminal cases would have to obtain the permission of the criminal court concerned only when they intend to travel abroad, the judge said and directed the RPO to process the petitioner's application and reissue the passport within a month if the application was in order otherwise. In his affidavit, Mr. Seeman stated he had been facing motivated criminal cases since 2008 and yet, he had been visiting many foreign countries to meet the Tamil diaspora. When the RPO refused to reissue his passport with additional pages in 2013, he had approached the High Court and obtained a favourable order. However, when he planned to visit some neighbouring countries in September 2024, he found that he had lost his passport. Immediately, a police complaint was lodged and a Lost Document Report (LDR) was obtained on October 10, 2024. Thereafter, he applied for the reissuance of the passport in November 2024. The RPO on January 31, 2025, refused to reissue the passport, the petitioner complained and contended he was not facing any serious charges and there was no likelihood of him absconding or evading the course of justice. Mere pendency of a few 'motivated criminal cases' could not be a reason to deny passport, he argued.
