Despite the miscommunications, lackluster performances, and just bewildering play of the New York Giants’ secondary at times, one player has stood out among the rest.
How has Michael Thomas impacted the New York Giants’ defense?
Brought in to be a dynamo on the special teams, safety Michael Thomas, has earned himself a more prominent role on the defense. Starting free safety, Curtis Riley, has struggled as a starter in the NFL, continuously missing tackles and failing to pick the right angle to secure the ball-carrier.
Moving forward, we might begin to see Thomas fill his role, although he has played well as a slot-corner, recording an impressive interception in the victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
