Here's another story on DT, not as upbeat, but I like the attitude Zorn's explanation about DT and kickoff returns displays.
Redskins Insider - Zorn: No Special Treatment for D. Thomas
Quote:
He expects Thomas to conduct himself as a professional.
"I think it helps a guy to get the ball, but I'm hoping that he can do it ... maybe somebody just has to smack him on the sideline," Zorn said. "You know, something to get him fired up. I don't want to put that [additional duties] on a guy to always have to be ready.
"He's going to kind of hold us hostage, 'Well, you didn't put me on the kickoff, so that's why I didn't play well.' That doesn't make any sense."
