According to Joe Giglio of the News & Observer, NC State Redshirt Sophomore Wide Receiver Thayer Thomas on the football front, and outfielder on the baseball team, will not be signing his contract with the Boston Red Sox.
“If he took the (Red Sox) offer, it would come at a cost to his football development,” Thomas’ father, Trevor, told The News & Observer on Wednesday. “He still wants to pursue both sports at N.C. State. This makes the most sense.” (N&O)
Thomas was drafted by the Boston Red Sox in the 33rd round of the 2019 MLB Draft, with the 1,007th pick.
