Patriots wide receiver Tyquan Thornton is determined to make changes to his body in order to increase his playing time for the upcoming 2024 season. In his first two seasons, Thornton was limited to just 22 games due to injuries sustained during preseason. These injuries occurred while he was going to the ground, prompting him to focus on gaining more muscle to prevent similar incidents from happening again.
In a statement to reporters on Thursday, Thornton shared that he has been putting in the effort to bulk up and strengthen his body in key areas. He emphasized the importance of being able to withstand impacts and quickly recover after hitting the ground. By adding more muscle, Thornton hopes to be more resilient and avoid injuries that have hindered his playing time in the past.
With 35 catches, 338 yards, and two touchdowns under his belt so far in his career, Thornton is striving to become a more reliable and productive player for the Patriots. The team is looking for consistent contributions from all players on offense, and Thornton’s determination to improve his physical condition is a positive step towards achieving that goal.
