Most of the time when you hear about the size of a player’s hands, it’s the quarterback. The thinking is that a quarterback can throw a ball better with larger hands. That isn’t an exact science, though it sounds good in theory.
How about the guys who have to catch those passes? Shouldn’t it be more important that they have big hands?
Some would say it is. And to those folks, I present Jordan Thomas and his 11-inch mits. ELEVEN INCHES. He is the only skill position player in this year’s combine to break the 11-inch hand barrier.
