Left tackle reports completing offseason knee rehab

A left tackle spoke with reporters at the team's facility on Tuesday and said he had completed physical therapy five days a week throughout the offseason. The player stated his primary goal after the season was to assess performance with coaches and rebuild strength in his knee.

"Just trying to rebuild the strength in my knee to get it back to where it was previously and I feel like I did a good job of that," the player said.

Injury and recovery timeline The player revealed he had torn a ligament in his knee during the regular season but did not undergo surgery. He said the decision to skip media availability after a postseason loss was due to being emotional about his performance.

Draft and regular-season context Questions existed about the player's ability to play left tackle before the draft. The player said he addressed many of those questions during the regular season.
