Profile
Started every game at left tackle for the secon straight season and remains one of the best unknown linemen in the NFL. Even had his first NFL reception on a batted-down pass in the Philadelphia game and rumbled 15 yards for a first down on the play. Came out of nowhere to replace the injured Luke Petitgout at left tackle and started there for the rest of the 2007 season playing admirably in the process. Had originally been signed from the Minnesota Vikings' practice squad in October to replace Kenyatta Walker who had been placed on IR. Was a gameday inactive for each of the final 13 games of the 2006 season. Was undrafted in 2006 but signed by the Vikings and made their practice squad after the final roster cutdown at the start of the season. Started 44 straight games in college at both left and right tackle.
