The Tennessee Titans are excited to have offensive lineman Peter Skoronski take another leap in his second season in the NFL.

The No. 11 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft out of Northwestern played left tackle in college, which saw him high on many experts’ draft boards coming out. However, the Titans had a different vision for Skoronski, moving him to left guard in his rookie year.

Skoronski’s 6-4, 313-pound frame projects as more of a guard in the NFL than a tackle, so the switch makes sense for the Titans. Still, Skoronski has a ton of talent, which is why he was chosen in NFL.com’s “win-now” draft as a seventh-round selection.

In the exercise, each team had a chance to choose any player in the NFL with the idea that they are starting a team from scratch. Skoronski was the No. 211 overall pick, meaning he should be one of the top-seven players on a roster. For the Titans, he projects as such.

However, Skoronski had to deal with a lot of change in his first season in the league. He had to adjust to the speed of the game changing from college to the pros and learn a whole new position in the process.

Skoronski was thrown into the deep end, but he found a way to float. He committed just one penalty all season long in his rookie year, competing in 14 games for the Titans at left guard.

Now, Skoronski enters his second season with a lot more comfort and experience. He also has No. 7 overall pick JC Latham on his left-hand side at tackle and Lloyd Cushenberry III on his right as the team’s center. That should also make Skoronski feel a lot more comfortable with that kind of help on each side of him.

On top of that, offensive line guru Bill Callahan has joined his son’s coaching staff, and he’s considered to be one of the best position coaches in the NFL. He should be able to develop Skoronski’s talents and make him one of the better guards in the NFL.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) – Tennessee Democrats are speaking out after Patriot Front held its annual Independence Day March in downtown Nashville.

The group posted videos of the march, including “activists” entering downtown, crossing the Cumberland River, marching down Broadway and giving a speech at Legislative Plaza across from the Tennessee State Capitol.

Democrats denounced the protests, calling the group “white supremacists.”

“Just two days after celebrating the independence of our nation, white supremacists have taken to the streets of Nashville carrying Confederate flags and chanting ‘deportation saves the nation’ and “Seig Heil,’” the Tennessee Democratic Party said in a statement. “We condemn these acts of terror in our community and call on Republican leaders of our state to do the same. The hatred and division that white supremacists and right wing groups seek to sow should never be acceptable to any citizen.”

“This comes after a march of new-Nazis in the Spring and Proud Boys rallying there a year ago,” State Rep. Justin Jones, D-Nashville, said in a social media post. “Shame on my Republican colleagues who continue to welcome these hate groups to our state with racist laws and rhetoric.”

“This is what we’re fighting against in Tennessee. This is what we’re fighting against in America,” Tennessee Democratic Party Chair Hendrell Remus said in a statement. “While our Republican state leaders sit quietly by, we refuse to let hate filled racists terrorize our community.”

A heated pursuit of nearly two miles after an attempted traffic stop on Saturday morning ended in a vehicle collision on Sonoma Boulevard and Tennessee Street that left one dead and others transported to a local hospital.

A driver on Vallejo’s Sonoma Boulevard and Lemon Street at close to 1 a.m. Saturday refused to pull over for officers, triggering a high-speed pursuit that ended when the driver collided with an uninvolved vehicle.

According to Vallejo police, a male occupant of the vehicle was pronounced dead at the scene. The other occupants in both vehicles were transported to local hospitals for treatment.

The Solano County Major Crimes Task Force took over the investigation.

The incident came just a day after a hectic Fourth of July that saw the Vallejo Fire Department respond to 86 calls in a 32-hour period. It also came approximately 12 hours after a homicide at Tennessee and Humboldt streets — the city’s 10th homicide of the year.

The identity of the victim in Friday’s shooting is being withheld pending notification of next of kin by the Solano County Coroner’s Office. Police say it is too early to know if the incidents are related.

Anyone with information regarding this case is urged to contact Detective Daniel Callison at (707) 648-4533 or Daniel.Callison@cityofvallejo.net or Detective William Carpenter at (707) 651-7146 or William.Carpenter@cityofvallejo.net.
