This is literally what I've been saying all season. I've seen him play more than once, and both games left the same taste in my mouth.
"There were flashes of the Michael Thompson that was so good this past off-season, but far too few to compensate for a week of practice and game where he mostly just held up offensive linemen. Thompson does have a nice blend of size and athleticism, but there were significantly more plays he took off than ones when he went 100 percent. He just did not have the stamina to make a tangible impact this week, and he may need to shed some bad weight."
While Thompson's stock went down, Perkins' went up.
