The Titans were dealt a big blow when star left tackle Taylor Lewan tore his ACL last October. Lewan will turn 30 this summer and is coming off the serious knee injury, but fortunately for the Titans and him, it sounds like everything is going well.

Lewan is believed to be on schedule in his recovery and should be ready to go at the start of training camp, Jim Wyatt of the team’s official site writes. The Michigan product made the Pro Bowl three straight seasons from 2016-18, and is the anchor of the Titans' offensive line. With the Titans relying so heavily on Derrick Henry, obviously the trenches are of the utmost importance.

Lewan was the 11th pick of the 2014 draft. He started at least 15 games every year from 2015-18, but was hit with a four-game PED suspension in 2019. Then he played only five games last year before going down with the ACL tear.

He’s signed through the 2023 season after inking a five-year, $80 million extension in July of 2018.
