Carmona Pushing for Starting Guard Job with Titans

Fifth-round pick Fernando Carmona started at right guard in the Titans' first preseason game and is expected to start again this week. Head coach Robert Saleh praised the rookie's performance, saying "He put his foot in the door, and he's doing everything he can to throw his shoulder through."

Carmona, who played left tackle in college before moving to guard, credits practicing against veteran defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons for his growth. The Titans are hoping Carmona could be part of their new era under Saleh, who was hired to improve the team's recent performance. realschule-moosburg.de
