Rookie Tate Ratledge, a former Georgia Bulldog, has secured the starting right guard position for the Detroit Lions, following a series of adjustments on the team's offensive line. Initially considered for the center role after Frank Ragnow's unexpected retirement, Ratledge will now replace Graham Glasgow, who stepped into the center position.

Lions offensive line coach John Morton expressed confidence in Ratledge's potential, highlighting his intelligence and adaptability during his time at center. As Ratledge prepares for the challenge ahead, his development will be crucial for the Lions, especially as they look to solidify their offensive line.
