I don’t stand in meeting rooms. I don’t sit next to the coaches as they go over game videos. I don’t even stand on the practice field with a whistle around my neck leading or evaluating drills or exercises. And yet, each and every time I see Bobby Evans trying to place his square offensive tackle form and technique into a round offensive guard slot, I wonder why? After all, I see the guy struggling at offensive guard. He struggled there in 2020. He is still struggling there.
I know that the right of passage for the LA Rams has been for collegiate offensive tackles to move to the guard spot, handle the chaos that is the world of an interior offensive lineman, and then move outside to the tackle spot if and when the need arises.
