He never played a full season at LT in college. In fact, his senior year was the only time he did play LT. He had decent games in the beginning, but then he was TERRIBLE. He gave up 6 sacks in 3 games against Ole Miss, Mississippi State, and Alabama. Gave up multiple pressures and QB hits, some of which turned the course of those games.
They ended up moving him back to RT because of how poorly he was playing.
He has played a full season at RT. He has played a full season playing offensive guard. LT is not his natural position and he was bad at it in college. I don't see where people get this thought from that he would get better at LT. He was never good there.
