I think he's getting his extension.
The franchise tag just doesn't make any sense at this point. There's nothing left to learn. And your leverage VANISHES if you tag him this season and hope to extend him next season. You're really gonna get cornholed then.
The only reason you'd tag him is if you look at the OT class this year and believe there's a 2024 starting LT available that needs a year to develop. But again, if you're wrong, you're ****ed going into contract talks next season. Moreover, we still need a RT as well.
I just don't see the upshot of tagging him again.
