Didn’t realize he’s taking it in the shorts so badly by the media. Is he that bad?

I'd anticipate him playing Guard in the future

Isn't he coming off a pretty hard knee injury? Not to mention he's still a rookie playing against the literal best teams left in the NFL... If I am not mistaken he was grading out as one of the better tackles in the entire NFL early in the season before his injury.

I thought he was out for the year. He is playing injured and had missed several games

He was atrocious yesterday. Has been since the injury. Wouldn’t make any long term prognostications as he was very good in pass pro earlier in year, but a complete liability yesterday. They had to game plan help for almost every passing play after that.

It looks to me that he’s still not completely healthy. Prior to his injury, he was playing much better in the run and pass game.

Hes playing hurt and gutting it out for his team without making excuses. frick the media and certain youtubers who love to roast him. Hes doing exactly what he said he was going to do. hes giving everything he has for his team to win. He will be better for it in the long run. Love it for him.

Watched Cambell a lot this weekend. He is a big time OT. He had a good game. Wait till he matures and gains experience. Yes he got beat a few times but everyone else on the OL got beat too.

Not so sure. There are no good pass rushers in the AFC East. He's gotten by pretty easy this year as far as that goes.

All the elite pass rushers ate his lunch. Watt- Garrett - Texans duo He was picked 4th overall to stop these guys.

Will Anderson ate his lunch when they played the Texans. I know he's a rookie, but you've got to look better than that as the #4 overall pick. Any OL drafted that high is expected to come in and play well immediately.

The answer to your question is no. He is playing injured and he's a rookie for pete's sake. Add to that you're playing against the best of the best at this point in the season....again, as a rookie. Will Campbell will end up playing around 15 years in the league and be a part of several all pro teams. Looks like the Patriots are on the upswing again so he will be a part of lots of playoff teams-which doesn't hurt for exposure.

Yeah, by like 3/4”. He should never have been drafted in 1st round!

He had the shortest wingspan of any OT measured since 2011.

Y’all will downplay anything in the name of fandom.

He’s playing hurt on the blindside in the NFL. No way that knee is even 85% healed so tale away just that little bit of mobility and NFL edge rushers will exploit it. This is where Will’s shorter arms hurts him. He could use that extra length to help compensate for his limited mobility. The people saying he’s going to guard I say no way they switch their top 5 pick who was playing well before he got hurt and move him inside already. Hell it took us 3 years to give up on Trevor Penning at tackle.
