Titans place Saahdiq Charles on reserve-retired list, creating an opening at right guard.
Why it matters: Charles' absence from practice and placement on the reserve-retired list leaves a void in the Titans' offensive line.
- The right guard position is a crucial role in protecting the quarterback and opening up running lanes for the offense.
What's new: Saahdiq Charles has been excused from practice and hasn't participated since last Friday.
- He was listed as the starting right guard on the team's unofficial depth chart.
Yes, but: This unexpected development presents an opportunity for other players to step up and compete for the starting spot.
- Rookie Dillon Radunz, a 2021 second-round pick, is set to replace Charles.
- Veteran offensive lineman Daniel Brunskill will also be in contention for the starting guard position.
What to watch: Keep an eye on how Radunz and Brunskill perform in training camp and preseason games as they vie for the starting role.
- Their performance will have implications for the team's offensive line effectiveness.
The bottom line: The absence of Saahdiq Charles on the reserve-retired list creates uncertainty at the right guard position for the Titans.
- It provides an opportunity for young players like Dillon Radunz to showcase their skills and earn a starting role.
- The Titans will need a solid offensive line to support their quarterback and establish a strong running game.
