The article discusses the importance of the swing tackle position in NFL teams, especially following the departure of veteran Cornelius Lucas from the Commanders. It highlights the potential candidates for this crucial backup role: Bobby Hart, Tyre Phillips, Foster Sarell, and Trent Scott. While Hart has the most snaps, he lacks LT experience and hasn't played recently. Phillips and Sarell also show low LT experience, with most snaps at RT. Trent Scott is noted for his versatility and experience with the Commanders, positioning him as the most suitable candidate for the swing tackle role.
The swing tackle is a versatile piece of the offensive line that can handle both left and right tackle duties, ensuring reliability amid injuries or strategy changes.
Bobby Hart, with the greatest number of snaps, has limited experience at LT and hasn't played a regular season snap since 2021, raising concerns about his readiness.
Tyre Phillips has 65 career snaps at LT, showing little versatility, while Foster Sarell has only played 46 snaps at LT and most experience at RT.
Trent Scott stands out as the most experienced backup, having played for the Commanders and demonstrating flexibility across multiple positions on the offensive line.
