Rob Sale wasn’t quite sure what to make of Andrew Thomas when they first met during the offseason. He’d seen Thomas’ tape from his time in college (impressive!) and his first season in the NFL (not so much!), which created a bit of a paradox in itself. But he also had some trouble getting a read on him as a person.
Thomas, the quiet introvert. Thomas, the kid who grudgingly chose football over marching band in high school.
