Marcus Thomas Interview on DB.com

"It's good to learn from older guys. They're willing to teach. You're just trying to pick up some of Jamal's habits, see what he does, see if you can do it in your way and make yourself better."

Sounds like Thomas is focused on staying inside at the nose... stay tuned

Great interview with one of my favorite players. Thanks for the link Jeremy!

You, my friend, are proof you dont need to have big floppy feet and a red nose to be a clown!

Good interview and thanks for posting

I hope we get to see Thomas do a little more one gap penetrating this year. I think it’s a real possibility, especially on third down if he plays more at the nose behind Williams.

Williams has really showed me what a good teacher he is

when he and Nunnley take time to show these guys where to be and why it helps them become better . Im stoked

OK Marcus

now PLEASE play at a high level. Keep up the good work! (I speak of how hard he will work in training camp, I visualize how MT can be not necessarily how he is today!)

I didn't necessarily take that he's staying at the nose....

He said he’s learning from Jamal, but that doesn’t necessarily mean he has to be at NT. As far as techniques, etc., most the 3 interior positions are pretty similar, so he may just be learning from Jamal because he’s the probowler of the bunch.
