Tennessee Titans' Tennis Pro Guard | Tennessee Titans News

A former tennis player turned NFL starter, Fernando Carmona is rewriting the script for late-round draft picks. Drafted in the third round, he’s now the Titans’ starting right guard — a role he earned through grit, adaptability, and sheer determination. Standing 6-foot-4 and weighing 225 pounds, Carmona didn’t play football until his junior year of high school, switched positions multiple times in college, and now anchors an offensive line that could become the foundation of Tennessee’s future. At just 24, he’s not elite in speed or strength, but his relentless work ethic and smart game plan mirror the traits of legendary linemen. With rookie JC Latham potentially forming a dynamic duo, the Titans may have unearthed their next “Bash Brothers” — proving that diamonds can be found in unexpected places.
