Details Emerge on Cam Ward Docuseries That's Coming to Streaming originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
Cam Ward is coming to a television near you! Well, somewhat to a television near you. Per Variety, "Zero Star: The Cam Ward Story" is making its way to Tubi in September. The six-episode sports documentary series will chronicle Ward's journey from an unknown, zero-star quarterback to a star at the University of Miami and ultimately becoming the first overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.

The director of the series and partner at Firebrand Media Group, Alec Roth, spoke to Variety about how the series "isn't just about football- it's about heart, belief and the power of second chances."
The series appears to offer life lessons in addition to providing insight into Ward's character. However, one thing is also interesting about this option for telling the story of Cam Ward.

Tubi is not one of the most prominent outlets in the world to air the story of the first overall pick in his journey, and there should be a bigger market for his story. With any other first overall pick, this story would be bigger, and the platform would be bigger too.

Does the market that he plays in the personality of Ward, which is confident yet calm, play into the reasons why it was not picked up or fought over? Or did Firebird Media Group decide this was the right direction for them to move?
Those answers we don't know, but either way, we will see Ward's story on television one way or another, and this adds to Tubi's portfolio and contributes to their growth from where they started to where they are now.
