Joe Thomas joins the NFL Network broadcast crew

The Browns and the NFL Network have announced that retired left tackle Joe Thomas will join the network as an analyst.

Thomas will provide pre- and postgame analysis on the broadcasts for Thursday Night Football for the 2019 NFL season. It’s a nice step for the future Hall of Famer, who has worked as a guest analyst for several venues and has been aiming to break into the broadcasting arena.

“I am thrilled to join NFL Network and Thursday Night Football,” Thomas said in a press release. “Throughout my playing career, I quickly realized there are few events which can rival the excitement and action of primetime NFL games, and having the chance to be a part of that atmosphere each week is something I greatly look forward to.”

Thomas previously auditioned for Monday Night Football. His popular Thomahawk podcast with fellow ex-Brown Andrew Hawkins will remain another opportunity to hear Thomas.
