Listening to manny on joe rose. It’s clear he’s sticking by this kid because he doesn’t want him to go down the wrong road path in life.

Exactly bro! This man is dangerous and we just don't know how to use him..... This kid is double on every play and still get his.I’m sure the real reason is bc Miamis offense sucks when Jeff Thomas isn’t on the field
TRUTH!!!!JT4 needs 10 touches a game, bar none
where are all the schmucks who said we're better off with 4 off the field? ******' douchebaggs

It was more about him as a person than as a player. He knows this can go really bad if he gives up on himYeah I heard it live as well. You can tell he just isn't ready to throw him away yet. It would have been so easy to kick JT off the team as Diaz said he had a "zero tolerance/this is your last shot" take on JT when he brought him back this year. Glad Diaz is sticking with the kid. He needs structure. Talent aside, he truly cares it sounds like.

I truly believe Thomas is talented enough to be a star in the league but he’s not ready yet imo. Praying he comes back another year but he probably won’t. He needs a clean year off the field with no reported issues and a productive year to go where he should go in the draft given his talentIf Manny can get through to this kid, and he can get Thomas to come back for next year and put in a solid 12 months of effort without distractions and set backs, JT4 would be a very rich man 15 months from now and Manny would get a lot of credit for being an incredible motivator and mentor.
That's a lot of if's, but we just beat the brakes off F$Who and I'm feeling optimistic at the moment.
The kid is clearly not ready for cold realities of the NFL. The upside of returning as the clear-cut #1 WR, on an offense with a healthy JW and possibly returning ALL of it's starters (minus KJ, which just opens up targets for JT), is potentially very large.
