“I mean, it’s the same as every day: coming to work and getting better, to try and get one percent better every day,” Guyton said following the first practice of 2026 training camp.
Outwardly, he’s working to stave off offensive lineman Nate Thomas, but his biggest opponent is himself and his health. If he wins against the latter, Guyton will likely win against the former.
Ability isn’t the question — availability is.
Guyton has shown he can make strides when he’s on the field, but he’s suffered injury in both of his first two seasons that has cost him significant time and, as such, a significant opportunity at gaining experience.
He’s made changes to both his diet and training regimen to improve durability, also noting that he’s “put on “grown man strength” for this coming season while balancing it with being technically sound against literally the most freakishly athletic pass rushers on the planet.
From there, well, here’s how Guyton sees it through his point-of-view:
“I [want to get] more technically sound, more confident in the playbook and the scheme and, overall, just a better player,” he said. “It’s a process, of course, and we have to take it day by day, one foot in front of the other. But, at the end of the day, I’m trying to get to a certain point where I feel good about going to the season.”
