Default Ticking from wheel at speed? Wheel bearing, axel nut?

So I'm getting a consistent ticking that varies with speed from a drivers side wheel (not sure which end F or R). It goes away when the brakea are applied with light pressure.
I hear it when driving next to th K rail. It is not the motor as it is there at a continuous rate/speed on or off throttle.

Thoughts? Wheel bearing, axel nut? ABS wheel speed sensor?

Thanks.

Are you sure its from the front? Ticking can occur in a bad cv joint, which would be from the rear on the is-f.

Sounds like my noise I am/was getting. The pads are dragging on the front left, I took them out applied a little grease and it seems to be slightly improved.

Ticking noises from my previous cars were from wheel bearings.
