Twitter: Steele to be swing tackle this year

[Rayman70]

weird. Hes a starter at RT. Leave him there. Let 77 be the swing.

so the Tyler to LG thing is buried once and for all.

They know more than me but I’d personally have Steele, Tyron and Tyler out there together…

If Tyron is better he should start….

 

[Cowboyny]

Hope you’re right

That's what he basically was saying and said the same thing at the combine. Now watch, everyone in the media run with this and will need to be corrected.

So then the backup plays.

Whats the problem?

i have no problem. steele will be starting very early in the season. Jerry is delusional if he’s counting on Tyron

 

[Landryhat73]

Thats just One facet of being a lineman

You think Tyron played better then Steele last year?

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

I gotta say though while I’d prefer all 3 to start….I feel damn good knowing we have a great swing tackle. Don’t have to rely guys Nsheke or Josh Ball.

How can you even determine who played better Tyron was hurt all year and was rusty. Not enough footage to claim who was better.

I fail to see how he's counting on Tyron. Just seems like he wants the best player to start.

Steele is going to start at RT, Tyron at LT, Tyler at LG. They all are considered swing tackles cause they can play the Tackle positions, doesn't mean Steele is now a backup. Why would they give him a 2nd rd tender then?

He stilled played rusty or not - in my opinion Steele was better. Look what happened to the run game when he went out.

Tyron switched to a position he hadnt played in over a decade. There is no doubt in my mind he will be a better tackle than Steele if he gets all the reps there this summer

I mean it makes sense. Steele is coming off injury….by the time Tyron gets hurt(hate to assume this but seems to be what happens), Steele will be ready to fill in. It could change but Jerry is saying exactly that. He’s the backup right and left tackle.

 

[Cowboyny]

"tandem" means multiple.

Of course he was. Hell Noah Brown was better than Gallup coming off injury….anyone taking Noah Brown over a healthy Gallup? Same goes for Tyron. Healthy he’s a legit top 10 tackle. He’s still dominant at times. If he’s hurt then yeah we have a issue.

They aren't benching their best run Tackle last season and wouldn't give him a 2nd rd tender which costs valuable cap space.

Jerry was pretty definite there,read his statement again.

You think with his injury history they are going to give a ton of reps? The only way I can understand Tyron starting at RT is if Steele isn’t healthy coming off the ACL tear.

fair. but he’s made of glass at this point. that’s why i’m fine with starting tyron for as long as he can go. plus extra time for steele to get right

 

[Rayman70]

if it aint broke, dont fix it Jerry. U dumb arse. Steele needs to start at RT if healthy.
