New piece up over at panthers.com. I had read about this right after the draft but totally forgot about how hard his life has been. Really hope it pans out for him. He seems to have the right attitude and will do what it takes to become better.

Quote

Long before the tight end was drafted in the fourth round of this year's NFL Draft, Thomas was raised by his oldest brother after they moved in with their grandmother. It was their only option after their father died of a heart attack less than a year after their mother died of a kidney infection.

Disclaimer: I have been on the train thinking that Manhertz's injury is a blessing in disguise. Rooting for Thomas to show enough to immediately become our #2 TE.

I was very happy when we picked him. He was a guy I singled out at the Combine who really stuck out to me.

Twice before Hurney has drafted mid-rounders that I was enamored with. Josh Norman and Joe Adams, so it's been a 50/50 proposition in the past.

Hurnator is gonna win that round!
