I. The size.
Any Zach Banner story must start with Zach Banner’s size. He is an arrestingly large human being. Chuck Pagano had seen the tape and studied the measurables of his new offensive lineman, but the tape and the measurables can’t fully prepare your eyes for your first glimpse of Zach Banner in person, in pads, on the football field, dwarfing the remaining offensive linemen like he’s an eighth-grader and they’re still in fourth.
He is a skyscraper, but thicker. He makes 6-2 lineman look like they’re 5-2.
