Zach Thomas saw his time with the Miami Dolphins come to a close as a free agent in 2008. Thomas, a 2023 Pro Football Hall of Fame class member, signed with the Dallas Cowboys at the time.
He played in 16 games for Dallas at right inside linebacker before calling it a career. That said, Thomas recently discussed the opportunity for a different career path - one that would’ve felt eerily similar to Jason Taylor joining the New York Jets in 2010.
Earlier this week, Thomas was on WQAM’s Hochman & Crowder and revealed that he met with Bill Belichick and almost became a member of the Patriots in 2008.
