Carmona Pushing for Starting Guard Job with Titans

Carmona started at right guard in the Titans' first preseason game and is expected to start again this week. Head coach Robert Saleh praised the rookie's performance, saying 'He put his foot in the door, and he's doing everything he can to throw his shoulder through.' truewildslot.com

The former left tackle at San Jose State and Arkansas has moved to guard in the NFL, and he credits veteran defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons for helping his development. 'Being a rookie, there's a lot of things I need to grow on, and he sees a lot of those flaws in me,' Carmona said. 'And it's just awesome having that veteran leader being able to tell you what he sees and how it can improve my game.'
