The talk in the past that he only considered himself a left tackle — Becton is the starter at right tackle with Duane Brown entrenched on the other side — became irrelevant.
“Sometimes you got to take a step back and put ego aside and just do what’s best for the team,” Becton said after Tuesday’s practice, in his first public comments since coach Robert Salehafter Saturday’s preseason victory over the Giants. “That’s my main thing right now, just doing what’s best for the team. I want to be on that field with my teammates. … I wanted to be part of that five no matter what.
For the first time since college, he is down to 350 pounds — after weighing as much as 400 at one point.Becton, 24, spent a bulk of camp getting second-team reps at left tackle. He started the last two preseason games on the right side, and held up well leading to Saleh’s Saturday announcement.“It was pretty cool. It was a great moment for sure — for me — for all the work I put in these past few years,” he said. “It was definitely great.”“I’ve been putting in all this work, I feel I have no chance but to be ready,” he said. “Even if I didn’t [play] a full game in the preseason, I feel like I’m still ready. …. I’m really confident in my knee, for sure.
