Ian Thomas has agreed to take some salary cuts over the next couple of years. So, it's actually a "reworked" contract with different money (LESS..) involved. I'm happy to have Thomas, but i expect him to take a backseat to Hayden Hurst. Ian Thomas (and probably Tommy Tremble..) will see infrequent use except in two TE sets. My GUESS...
Spot on Hobbit, this one was more like a 3 million dollar haircut. Still more than fair to Thomas, last years deal was a little out of “fairness”…
Exactly right.... Now that he's played several years, we know. Now, it's easier to see he was overpaid. Thomas was a 4th rounder in 2018. So up until last year he was playing on his rookie contract. The bump he got last year was excessive. Hind sight makes it so much easier...
