After consecutive debilitating losses, it has been a rough few weeks for the Tennessee Titans. Between struggling offenses, special teams disasters, trades and injuries, things have looked bleak. But according to the 33rd Team, one thing should be a small cause for optimism.
Titans’ rookie JC Laham was named to the first team of the 33rd Team’s 2024 Midseason NFL Rookie Offense.

Latham started his NFL career as somewhat of a question mark after the Titans drafted him seventh overall in the 2024 NFL draft. Strictly a right tackle in college at Alabama, Latham has made a smooth transition to the left side of the offensive line.
More importantly, he has improved every week and has become the anchor of a young unit. While there is a giant hole at right tackle, Latham and guard Peter Skoronski have become a formidable tandem on the left side, and players the coaching staff and front office can build upon moving forward. After seven games, the selection of Latham looks like a home run, Titans’ fans hope he is the first of many for general manager Ran Carthon.
Latham and the Titans will return to the field Sunday when they return home to Nashville to take on the New England Patriots in Week 9 Action.
