At 39 I could definitely see why you would think that. But Whit was still better than all our Lineman last year, he is smart and
switching to Guard has extended the careers of lots of OT's in the NFL.

From a leadership perspective, having a guy like Whitworth next to him would be fantastic for Williams development.

Agreed, it is not only O-line play that Whit would be upgrading, leadership is something we need and it would be nice for him to
work with Joe Burrow his fellow LSU alum. (Thanks for that, will do Sunset).
