Once the Buffalo Bills traded away incumbent left tackle Cordy Glenn during the 2018 offseason, it was readily apparent the team felt comfortable with Dion Dawkins taking over as the starter in 2019.
Dawkins, who was selected with the No. 63 overall pick in the second round of the 2017 NFL Draft, had proven himself to be a capable fill-in when Glenn himself was battling an assortment of injuries, so it was logical to assume Dawkins could continue his stellar play anchoring Buffalo’s blind side prior to the start of the 2018 season.
