A Day in the Life: Andrew Thomas Chats With Saquon Barkley
Andrew Thomas: Hey Saquon, finally caught up with you, man. Between practices and workouts, I feel like we’re always on the move!
Saquon Barkley: No kidding, Andrew. It’s either we’re grinding on the field or trying to catch a moment to breathe. But hey, that’s life in the NFL. How’s the O-line feeling this season?
Andrew Thomas: We’re feeling good! We’ve been pushing hard to protect you and Daniel. Those new drills Coach brought in are no joke, but I can tell they’re making a difference. How about you? How’s the body holding up?
Saquon Barkley: I’m feeling stronger than ever. You know I had to bounce back and show everyone I’m still a force out there. It’s all about that mindset. Plus, seeing you guys bust your butts makes me want to push even harder.
Andrew Thomas: That’s what we’re here for, man! It’s a team effort. Remember that touchdown run you pulled off last game? The one where you broke like three tackles? What was going through your head?
Saquon Barkley: (Laughs) Honestly, I was just focused on hitting the gaps and keeping my feet moving. But I gotta give props to you guys up front. Without those blocks, that run’s not happening. How do you stay so composed under pressure?
Andrew Thomas: It’s all about the fundamentals. I mean, playing in the NFL, the pressure is a given. But if you focus on every snap, every play, and trust your technique, things start to flow naturally. Plus, playing alongside you makes it all worth it.
Saquon Barkley: Appreciate that, man. It’s crazy how much we feed off each other’s energy. Speaking of which, what’s your go-to meal after a big win?
Andrew Thomas: Oh, you know I’ve gotta fuel up right! Usually, I’ll go for some grilled chicken, pasta, and veggies. But if we’re celebrating, maybe I’ll treat myself to a steak. What about you?
Saquon Barkley: Definitely some protein and carbs. But I do love a good burger when I’m feeling like I’ve really earned it. It’s all about balance though, right?
Andrew Thomas: Exactly. We’ve got to take care of these bodies if we want to keep performing at this level. Any tips you’d give to the rookies coming in this year?
Saquon Barkley: Stay humble, stay hungry. Understand that every day is a chance to get better. And always watch and learn. We’ve got so many veterans with wisdom to share. But what about you? Any advice from an O-line perspective?
Andrew Thomas: Never underestimate the importance of your technique. The small details can make all the difference. And build a solid bond with your teammates; that chemistry translates to the field. And always, always protect your QB and your running backs!
Saquon Barkley: Preach that! Alright, big man, I know we’ve got to get back to prepping for our next challenge. Let’s bring that energy and get another W.
Andrew Thomas: You know it! Let’s do this. Go Giants!
Saquon Barkley: Go Giants!
