Minnesota Vikings: T.J. Clemmings will wind up starting at RT
The Minnesota Vikings made moves at right tackle, but there’s a high probability T.J. Clemmings will end up starting there again in 2016.
When Phil Loadholt tore his Achilles in preseason last year, rookie T.J. Clemmings was forced into service way sooner than expected.
Clemmings would go on to start all sixteen games for the Vikings at right tackle, struggling mightily along the way. Clemmings was drafted with an eye toward letting him sit on the bench and develop for awhile so it should have been no surprise that when forced into the starting lineup he seemed utterly overwhelmed a lot of the time, especially in pass protection.
