Pitt’s battle-tested right tackle with rare versatility
Mike McGlynn was a sturdy, high-mileage Panthers lineman who entered 2007 with 31 straight starts and 35 consecutive games played, making him a dependable anchor on Pitt’s front and a plus as the team’s long snapper on special teams. His calling card was durability, technique, and positional flexibility at right tackle, with added value from playing through a left-shoulder surgery rehab. If a team wanted an experienced, assignment-sound OL who could keep the operation clean and handle pressure, McGlynn fit the bill.
