Coach ,


We are excited to see Joe Thomas in the Hall of Fame on his first ballot!


Joe Thomas played 11 seasons for the Cleveland Browns. He was the third overall selection in the 2007 NFL Draft out of the University of Wisconsin, where he earned All-American honors. 


Thomas’ hallmark was his consistency of performance. He played a remarkable 10,363 consecutive snaps at left tackle, which is the longest streak at any position since the NFL began recording the statistic. 


He was voted to ten consecutive Pro Bowls (the only offensive lineman in NFL history to do so), achieved eight All-Pro selections, and earned a spot on the NFL’s 2010s All-Decade Team.


Joe Thomas shared insight into playing offensive line at the C.O.O.L. Clinic. In this video he and legendary OL Coach Bob Wylie discuss what makes a great offensive lineman.

Video: What makes a great offensive lineman


The entire talk is full of gold nuggets for both the offensive line coach as well as the offensive lineman.  


This is a great video for you to watch with your offensive line this offseason to help them learn from one of the best ever.

The C.O.O.L Clinic will be back virtually this May. Stay tuned for the speaker list which Coach Wylie said is the best ever!


Always be growing!


Coach Grabowski
