Joe Thomas is the longest tenured team member of the Cleveland Browns. Since being drafted in 2007, the future Hall of Famer has played for five coaches and what feels like 100 quarterbacks. He’s also enjoyed only one winning season, when the Browns went 10-6 in his rookie year. Since then, it’s been mostly misery.
However, any time another failed season came and went, any time another coach was fired, Thomas just took it in stride, somehow convincing himself he should stick around under the belief Cleveland would eventually start winning.
As we all know, this has yet to happen.
