Andrew Whitworth has been a bright light on the set on Amazon Prime’s Thursday Night Football pregame show. He recently made note of how he’s fortunate to have the position because those who played his position aren’t represented well in media.
Joining Burns and Gambo on Arizona Sports 98.7, Whitworth said he was having a good time on the set and is proud to be doing it.
“It’s a lot of fun. You know there’s not much out there for the offensive linemen getting the chance to talk about the game they love and the passion they have for it and really, from our perspective.”
Whitworth says that his perspective should be considered just as valuable because of what his position is asked to know.
“You think about it in the game, probably the quarterback, they’re first and we’re (left tackle) probably second as far as who needs to know the most on the field all the time on the offensive side of the ball,” Whitworth said. “It’s going to be fun to be a part of that and some of the guys and I have gotten into to it. To represent the big fellas, I can’t wait.”
