It appears that the Tennessee Titans are experimenting with different ways to use offensive lineman Dillon Radunz.

Radunz, a second-round pick by the Titans in 2021, has been working at right tackle during training camp. He's been battling rookie Nicholas Petit-Frere for the starting right tackle job.

Petit-Frere got the start at right tackle against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this past weekend. Radunz had started the first preseason game against the Baltimore Ravens.

When Radunz entered the game against the Bucs, it wasn't great. He struggled in pass blocking, earning a 17.8 grade from Pro Football Focus.

Comparing @PFF grades for Petit-Frere, Radunz vs. Bucs:
Run-block Pass-block Overall Offense
Petit-Frere 52.9 74.3 54.3
Radunz 55.8 17.8 27.4

Radunz was working at left guard on Monday during practice, seemingly because of his poor performance against the Buccaneers.

After practice, Titans head coach Mike Vrabel was asked about Radunz working at guard.

Vrabel, unsurprisingly, didn't give too much away, simply saying the Titans were "shuffling things around" to see where guys best fit.

“Just trying to shuffle guys around. Had some guys out and just trying to figure out where guys are going to be best served.”

Radunz obviously has talent — he was a solid player at North Dakota State. But there have been questions about his viability as a long-term offensive tackle in the NFL.

NFL Film's Greg Cosell, in fact, told 104.5 The Zones's 3HL earlier this month that he doesn't think Radunz's long-term future in the NFL is as an offensive tackle.

It appears Cosell was correct. And while I think most folks were starting to come to that realization, Cosell's prediction is appearing to come true sooner than most likely expected.

With Radunz poised for a position change, it's time for Titans fans to reset their thoughts on the former second-round pick. He's much better suited to play guard in the NFL (I'm not even sure he should be counted on as a swing tackle after the performance against the Bucs), which means we might be surprised at how effective he plays there.

Radunz, by the way, started 32 straight games at left tackle for North Dakota State, so there will be a bit of a learning curve at guard (if he sticks there) for the Minnesota native.
