The Kentucky native has always played in the Right tackle protecting Tua Tagovailoa blind spot. However, there are questions being raised if he can handle the position from the Left.
"It's currently an unknown in his evaluation because we haven't seen him on the left side and even in high school, he predominantly played right tackle, It's something that'll come down to the workouts, but in terms of in-game live reps, that's a projection that teams will have to make. They'll work him out at left tackle just to see his movements and the muscle memory to see if he looks natural doing it. I think he will. I think all the athletic traits are there for him to do it, but it does take a little bit of a leap of faith if you are projecting him to play left tackle in the league." according to the Scouting report from the Analyst Dan Brugler from the New York Jets.
