Welcome to Talking Giant's Player Profiles and Projections.

0:28.0

Today we have Will Hernandez, 6 foot 2, 327 pounds, but he said he's lost some pounds.

0:34.0

He said he lost some weight, probably probably around 3-10.

0:38.0

It turns 26 in a couple weeks, entering the final year of his rookie deals.

0:42.0

Kind of weird we're doing these PPPs and the David Gattelman draft picks are entering the final years of their deal.

0:48.0

Started 39 career games in a row. Didn't miss a snap.

Guy stays healthy, bam, he gets the COVID, he gets the coronavirus and he never gets his job back while rotating in for a driver too.

1:00.0

Now entering his fourth season, he's moving to right guard.
