Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive lineman Tristan Wirfs on Friday opened up about the anxiety he dealt with when making the move from right tackle to left tackle this offseason.
The anxiety became so overwhelming that Wirfs told reporters Friday he turned to team sports psychologist Joe Carella.
"It seems like so minuscule, like oh, you're just flipping sides, but I was like having breakdowns about it," Wirfs said. "I'm like, 'I can't sit here with these thoughts anymore. I'm just kind of setting myself up for failure.' I would just think about, 'I am going to suck' or like, 'I am not going to be able to do it' all day long.
