Player Review
Thomas McDonald was very solid at the Rubio Long Snapping VEGAS XLI Event on January 14-15, 2023! His starting form is excellent and he is one of the smoothest Long Snapper's in his class. Balance is very good and he does a great job of leaning back so he does not fall forward after the snap. The spiral is tight and snaps are very easy to catch. The ball will practically stick to the punters hand since the spiral is so tight. Athletically he moves really well, and I loved how aggressive he was going through the agility station. There's no doubt that Thomas will be a major factor of a punt coverage team. The harder he snaps, the better he does. When he is on and snapping the ball with full power, and trust is great for him, he can basically snap a college ball right now. Keep a very close eye on this kid
