Another draft day steal by Jimmy Johnson, linebacker Zach Thomas went from an undersized fifth-round pick out of Texas Tech to a seven-time All-Pro in the NFL, and a seven-time Pro Bowl selection. Thomas has kept a relatively low profile in the aftermath of his NFL career, but his name bubbled up in the news cycle this summer when Brian Urlacher was inducted into the Hall of Fame.

Many people inside and outside of Miami believed Thomas was as deserving as Urlacher, if not more, of a Hall of Fame induction. After all, only one linebacker currently in the Hall of Fame — Ray Lewis — has more career tackles than Thomas. Fans might get their chance to see it, though, as Thomas has been named to the initial list of candidates for 2019.
