Tannehill: ‘I Feel Safe’ Behind Interior O-Line

All the talk around Miami Dolphins Training Camp starts up front, where offensive guards Dallas Thomas (sat out practice today with a shoulder injury), Jamil Douglas, and Billy Turner are competing for two starting spots.

Quarterback Ryan Tannehill — who hasn’t missed a start in his 48-game career — doesn’t fear for his physical well being from pressure up the middle. At least not yet — or not publicly.

“Yeah I feel safe,” Tannehill said after practice Wednesday. “You know they’re competing. I’m not sure who’s gonna end up being in [those spots] but those guys are competing and they’re facing one of the best — if not the best — [defensive] tackle in the league so it’s not always gonna be pretty no matter who’s up there.
