George Manos serves as president of THOR Executive Security Teams and vice president of the Soldiers’, Sailors’, Marines’, Coast Guard & Airmen’s Club. Outside of his professional life, George Manos is a lifelong fan of the NFL’s New York Jets.

According to reports, Jets head coach Todd Bowles believes that wideout Brandon Marshall needs to slim down a bit before the upcoming season.

Marshall recently posted a video on Twitter informing Jets fans that Bowles has asked him to drop his playing weight below 230 pounds; the video also featured a modest dinner plate of blueberries and grouper. For his part, Bowles says he believes dropping the weight will help Marshall return to the speed he exhibited in Miami.

Last year, Marshall posted huge numbers of 109 receptions for 1,502 yards and 14 touchdowns. Now in his early 30s, Marshall may need to do a little more than before to maintain his speed, which is likely why Bowles is asking him to drop the weight.
