“A lot of frustration goes into that. But a lot of preparation went into it also,” Radunz said of his injury. “ . . . My body just healed really fast.”
“When you’re a second-round draft pick, I mean, you want to perform,” Radunz said Sunday. “I’m here to play football. I’ve started five games here and now I’ve played in however many. You’re always wanting to play more football, and I definitely feel like I’m getting more settled in the more I play here.”
“Cliché as it is, pressure makes diamonds, all that stuff,” Radunz said. “You’ve just got to be able to handle the pressure and move forward and just keep taking blows and handling the adversity.”
I’ve always felt Vrabel was always a fan of Radunz, and a good mentor for the kid. Same for Jack Gibbens.
Kinda sucks there’s really not a spot for him on the OL. He’d be a good LG but that job is now and hopefully taken for the next 12 years. I don’t think he’d be better then Dillard at LT and we’ve seen him struggle on the right side of the line. Hopefully i’m wrong and he can play RG for us.

That’s a rep with the intensity of a guy that never wants to come off the field again, love seeing this from Radunz.
This looks like a drill working against the sled, what a way to set the tone.
Edit: [Quotes from Radunz from Gentry Estes article from after the game Sunday (Tennessean paywall):](https://www.tennessean.com/story/sports/nfl/titans/2023/09/17/dillon-radunz-injury-update-tennessee-titans-depth-chart-nfl-week-4/70795630007/)
