  04/25/22 - OG Braeden DanielsrJr/2023, Utah

  Utah has a new left tackle protecting quarterback Cam Rising's blind side. During the spring, junior Braeden Daniels moved from right tackle to left tackle, replacing Bamidele Olaseni. "I'm still refining the details," Daniels said. "I'm trying to not just get the job done but be a dominant left tackle and be that guy that people can depend on. It's been a good spring, working on my technique. It's getting better each and every day." The 6-foot-4, 299-pound junior from Carrollton, Texas, started all 14 games last season, including three at left guard and 11 at right tackle. Daniels earned All-Pac-12 second-team honors.

Offensive line coach Jim Harding explained why Daniels is playing left tackle now. "A lot of it has to do with the fact that he has experience and has played at a high level. He was an all-conference player. That plays into it. He's a guy that is doing the right things off the field as well," he said. "He's very attentive in meetings. He's got a high football IQ. A lot of kids seek him to get answers outside of meeting time. (Offensive lineman) Paul Maile, though he's been limited, has done a nice job. That's what you want - your veteran players and Paul and Braeden have done a nice job that way." "He continues to refine his game. We switched him over to left tackle and it took him a practice or two to get comfortable there. But he's really embraced that," Harding said. "He knows that it's a position that we value a lot. We try to put one of our better players in that position. He's done a nice job. His football IQ is really high. That's helped him transition maybe a little bit faster than what we were expecting." - Deseret News
