Ups and Downs for the Tennessee Titans rookies on Monday
By Will Lomas
Downs
Isaiah Wilson, OT
–I’m trying to be on board with the Isaiah Wilson pick, but it is getting harder and hard to have optimism.
Wilson has already shown that he isn’t a great decision maker with what happened off the field a few weeks ago, so you really want to see him improve on the field. However, it sounds like he has gotten worse and not better. Buck Reising at A to Z Sports Nashville had a great thread on practice today and it started with Wilson:
#Titans Monday Practice Report, per @BuckReising:

- Isaiah Wilson’s technique needs a lot of improvement...spends a lot of time on the ground, Stands up out of his stance and gives up leverage
- Jayon Brown took Ty Sambrillo No. 70 off his feet on a screen left to clog it up
If you scroll down you will see that Terry McCormick noted that right now Wilson isn’t even the backup right tackle, with Ty Sambrailo getting reps in the absence of Dennis Kelly.
Aaron Brewer, iOL
-With backup center Jamil Douglas out, the Titans didn’t let the UDFA rookie take a snap at center. Instead, they used Daniel Munyer who has been a journeyman back up for a long time. That is a really bad look for Brewer because the last time that Munyer played center was in 2015 and he only did it for 5 snaps.
Also no practice for #Titans AJ Brown and Dennis Kelly. Ben Hones limited to individual. Daniel Munyer got first team reps at center. Ty Sambrailo was right tackle instead of Isaiah Wilson. Hmmm. Interesting.
