Offseason transactions leave Titans with crowded position group and a good problem

The Titans kept 10 players on the offensive line (four tackles and six interior) on their initial 53-man roster for the 2023 season. On Tennessee’s current depth chart, there are nine offensive linemen who played at least 80 percent of the offensive snaps in at least one game last season.

There are some presumed starters in Peter Skoronski and Lloyd Cushenberry. There are some players competing for starting jobs in Daniel Brunskill, Saahdiq Charles, and Dillon Radunz. Then there are players just competing for spots on the bench. I’d put Jaelyn Duncan, Andrew Rupcich, Nicholas Petit-Frere, John Ojukwu, and Leroy Watson in this tier.

That’s ten players who have a legitimate chance to make the 53-man roster. It’s safe to assume that the Titans are still going to add at least two linemen during the draft that can be instant contributors. It’s a good problem to have. It just means tough cuts might be coming at the end of August.

The tackle competition should be a really fun one in training camp. Petit-Frere, Watson, Duncan, and Ojukwu could end up competing with two rookies being added in the mix. The Titans only kept four tackles last season (Andre Dillard, Chris Hubbard, Justin Murray, and Jaelyn Duncan).
