Rams | Thomas will help restore the run defense Fri Jul 31, 08:38 PM
Jim Thomas, from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, reports that in the twilight of his NFL career, defensive tackle Hollis Thomas has come home to help stop the bleeding. The Rams hope the St. Louis native can be more than a 335-pound Band-Aid for a run defense that was gashed for a franchise-record 2,475 yards rushing last season. Thomas' eyes widened and his head snapped back as if to say "wow" when he was informed of that dubious feat. "That would be embarrassing to any defense, to any team as a whole," Thomas said. "I think everybody on this team has some pride. That should be our main objective -- to stop the run. Because if you can't stop the run, there's no need to try to pass-rush. You have to stop the run first." No one at Rams Park expects Thomas to work miracles, not at age 35 and entering his 14th NFL season. But they do expect him to help restore some of the pride in the Rams' run defense.

Hollis Thomas player pageEagles | H. Thomas remains on team's radar Sun Jul 19, 12:26 PM
Updating a previous item, Jeff McLane, of the Philadelphia Inquirer, reports free-agent DT Hollis Thomas (Saints) was not offered a contract when he visited the team in June, but he remains on the team's radar, according to a team source. Team spokesman Derek Boyko said Thomas was given a physical when he visited.
Footballguys view: The Eagles have good depth at DT, but none of the players on the roster are as adept at run-stuffing as Thomas, plus he can replace some of the veteran leadership lost when Brian Dawkins signed with Denver. |
