Report: Why Giants’ Andrew Thomas struggled considerably in final pre-season game

The New York Giants’ final preseason game of the off-season against the New England Patriots didn’t go as planned. Second-year left tackle Andrew Thomas had a problematic outing, allowing one sack, one hit, one hurry, and three pressures over 39 snaps. His unfortunate performance drew plenty of negative responses from the fan base and media, justifiably so.

Zack Rosenblatt of NJ.com spoke with Andrew Thomas’s personal mentor, who revealed an interesting piece of information:

“You really have to know the reason why he came out looking sluggish,” said Kevin Johnson, Thomas’ mentor.
