BEREA, Ohio — Joe Thomas left no room for doubt.
He did not ask for a trade, he did not talk about a trade with the Browns and neither he nor his agent spoke to the Denver Broncos about re-doing his contract to make a trade happen.
“I can say in no uncertain terms did I ever ask the Browns for a trade,” Thomas said Tuesday, “that I ever talked to them about wanting to be traded nor did any of my representatives ever talk to the Browns about wanting to be traded.”
He was not done.
