says who, you? Why?
This idea that somebody is a RT and not a LT based on...what exactly?
He might well stay at RT. Or we might move him over. We don't know. But there's zero physical reason why we COULDN'T move him over. He has all of the physical attributes and agility skills.
Some people are 'RIGHT TACKLES' because they lack something in the skillset department that you would typically want in a LEFT TACKLE.
And some people just happened to play RIGHT TACKLE because the team already had a LEFT TACKLE and why move them?
Niang was in that spot in college. There's no reason he couldn't play left. Dude showed out against Chase Young AND Nick Bosa. I think he'd be fine.
