  07/15/22 - QB Devin LearyrSr/2024, Kentucky

  Studying quarterbacks and breaking down film comes naturally to N.C. State linebacker Drake Thomas. Being in front of the camera, sans helmet and shoulder pads, is admittedly outside of his comfort zone. But it was hard to tell when he and quarterback Devin Leary were on screen recently, appearing in a series of commercials for Bobbitt Construction in Raleigh. "It takes a little time to get adjusted," Thomas said. "I'd say the first time it was awkward. I'm not an actor obviously, but we went back to do some more videos and I was definitely a lot more comfortable. It was more natural."

In three seasons, Thomas has made 192 tackles and was a first-team all-ACC performer in 2021. Last season Leary broke N.C. State's single-season record for passing touchdowns (35), while throwing just five interceptions. Their success on the field thrust them into the spotlight, and when Bobbitt Construction reached out to them about appearing on camera, they were ready. "We've never shot a video or acted before, so it's new to us," Leary said. "But it's funny to see Drake hop into a skit, like, this dude is our starting linebacker and he's doing a construction video." - Raleigh News Observer
