No Huddle Podcast: A talk with Solomon Thomas and his father; Plus Garoppolo fever
"To see him become the man he is, it's just a dream come true for me," Chris Thomas, father of San Francisco 49ers rookie defensive lineman Solomon Thomas said. "I admire that Solomon is a very compassionate, loving, kind human being. He's a better person than I could even imagine him being. Some people wait their whole life to see their favorite player play. I raised mine."
How would you react if you got to see your child play in the NFL? For Chris, it was a dream come true to see his son take the field as a member of the 49ers.
Courtesy of Gillette, the No Huddle podcast got the opportunity to talk to both Solomon and Chris about life in NFL so far, and how it's impacted their day-to-day life. Solomon also gives his thoughts on his rookie season, and how he's adjusted to the pro game.
Plus, Al and Zain have Jimmy Garoppolo fever after the quarterback proves to be as advertised, leading the 49ers to a win in Week 13.
