New England Patriots: All-Decade Team of the 2010s
Left Guard – Joe Thuney
The New England Patriots selected Joe Thuney in the third round of the 2016 NFL Draft. He won the starting job as a rookie and has started every game since 2016.
Per Pro Football Focus, Joe Thuney has been a top-10 left guard in the NFL for the last three seasons, and has been a top-5 player in his position for the last two seasons. He brings a high level of grit and toughness to the offense the same way guys like Matt Light, Dan Koppen, and Logan Mankins once did.
Now a two-time Super Bowl champion, Thuney is set to become a free agent in 2020 and should be in for a big payday.
