Starters: Kolton Miller, DJ Glaze​

Backups: Thayer Munford, Dalton Wagner, Gottlieb Ayedze​


Miller is entrenched as the left tackle for this team. Glaze took the reins at right table early last season and looked good enough to warrant a shot to keep the job going into next season. The one issue may be depth and potentially some competiion for Glaze just to ensure the best player wins.

Condition: Stable​


The team opted not to add anyone in free agency and didn't lose anyone they wanted to keep. Thus leaving the position basically unchanged from last season.

At the owners meeting Monday morning, GM John Spytek suggested that the right tackle job will be between Glaze and a drafted player. He didn't say it was a priority, merely citing that the team had nine draft picks with which to try and find some competition.
