Zach Thomas delivers a message to the 2015 Miami Dolphins
Zach Thomas was at Miami Dolphins camp Tuesday but he wasn't just here to watch from the sideline.
As has been his penchant for seizing on such opportunities, coach Joe Philbin asked Thomas to address the team. And the address turned into a moving, motivating message.
According to those who heard the speech, Thomas implored players to seize their opportunities -- the ones they have in their hands right now as members of this Miami training camp -- with no regard for their status.
He pointed to John Denney and spoke of how 11 years ago when the long snapper was in his first training camp, he came basically out of nowhere to make the team.
