The took part in their latest practice of training camp on Saturday evening that featured a scrimmage and there was a very notable development: rookie offensive tackle DJ Glaze saw a significant amount of first-team reps at right tackle.In fact, according to, Glaze got more first-team reps at right tackle than the team's projected starter, Thayer Munford
Kirk Mclean Jersey Jr. This comes in the wake of Glaze garnering some hype after with first-team reps on Tuesday of last week."DJ Glaze and Thayer Munford swapped reps at right tackle with Glaze getting most of the day there," Damien wrote.While Munford seemingly took a back seat to Glaze at right tackle, the former seventh-round pick did see some looks at left tackle, also.Theyre mixing it up now. Putting Munford

Levi Damien (@LeviDamien) Unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be a review out there of how Glaze actually performed, but his first-team reps are notable nonethele s.As far as we know, this is the first time Glaze has gotten the nod over Munford in a practice this offseason. The Maryland product's last stint with the first team came following Munford with a hand injury before returning.So, what does this mean?It's hard to say for sure, but at

Nobody is ready to call this a succe sful pick by any means, but it's clear the rookie is ascending as training camp goes on.
