Louis: Where was my blocking?

Share

Its the famous old saying: You can take the boy out of the tight end but you cant take the tight end out of the boy.

Right guard Lance Louis was a tight end into his college career before outgrowing the job and becoming an offensive lineman. Against the Tennessee Titans, Louis had a chance to show his hands when a Jay Cutler pass was batted into the air and grabbed by Louis.

He knew what to do with it. Louis rumbled four yards before a phalanx of Titans stopped him short of the goal line.

Once you catch the rock, you always think you can do it and youre a tight end, Louis said. Im a lineman now, but when duty calls

Center Roberto Garza and left guard Chilo Rachal werent going to let that pass without a bit of commentary. Louis thought he might have scored with a little help.

I tried to juke one tackler, the 320-pound Louis deadpanned, but I was wondering where my blockers were.
