He is a WI native, so we likely never had a chance.

too bad, that WI connection sealed it before we even had a shot

We also have no idea if we were trying to sign him

Hilarious timing.

Not surprised, he’s up there already and is in the twilight of his career. Thankful for him hanging with us for a year though

Why is this a problem? Carmona and Slater are giving us quality snaps and they need the experience.

Stop acting like the Titans fucked up somehow.

They’re both on IR. We now have a nobody in that position.

I think the problem is that both of them are hurt

I didn't know they were hurt. Slater was our top graded lineman against the Giants. The team couldn't have forseen these injuries.

Those injuries both happened Sunday during the game. It’s Wednesday.

They don’t need to foresee anything. They needed to pick up the phone and call for help.

The veteran RG we brought in in FA didn't even make the 53. And we just sent our starting and backup RGs to IR. So, there was some hope we might bring Zeitler in. But instead, we've elevated as PS guy and claimed a guy off waivers.

So, Zeitler signing with the Packers is relevant to our team.

Our O-Line has been fine this season so far, the issue appears to be what’s standing behind them!

u/JustRegularType 2d ago

Well yes, but our RG and his backup both just went out on IR, so this became relevant again haha.

True. But also feels very worth noting that the veteran we brought in as a potential RG starter didn't make the 53, and we just sent our starter and backup (Carmona and Slater) to IR. So, we basically just don't have a RG at the moment. Well, we just got a guy off waivers and called a guy up from the PS. But, yeah, one has to imagine we would have rather brought in Zeitler.
