Titans’ JC Latham can lift crazy weight and his hands are MASSIVE

Diving into just how big and strong new Titans OT JC Latham is.

The first thing that is typically mentioned in evaluations of new Tennessee Titans offensive tackle JC Latham is how truly massive he is. The Alabama product stands at 6-foot-6 and weighs 342 pounds.

But that’s not even the biggest Latham has ever been. During his introductory press conference on Friday, Latham said he played at a whopping 360 pounds last season, although his goal is to be around 340 when he enters the NFL.

There have been stories floating around about how much Latham can lift. One analyst, Cole Cubelic, reported last year that Latham benched 505 pounds and squatted 900 pounds WITH resistance bands.

I get tired just thinking about that.

However, he clarified today that he did not in fact squat 900 pounds.

“It was 1,000,” Latham revealed.

As you’d expect Latham’s hands are massive, especially when you compare them to us mere mortals.

But even when compared to his NFL peers, Latham is a big boy. His hands measured at 11 inches, just .75 inches smaller than the biggest hand measurement in combine history, per Pro Football Network.

Take all of that into consideration and then combine it with the fact that Latham will now be under the tutelage of esteemed offensive line coach Bill Callahan and the sky’s the limit for how good he can be, no matter where he ends up upfront.
