Where is Adalius Thomas, Patriots bust who famously didn’t own a flying car?

Remember Adalius Thomas? He was one of Bill Belichick‘s biggest free-agent signings – and busts. He’s best remembered for being sent home from practice after a snowstorm caused him to arrive late to the facility. The incident led to one of the most famous lines in New England Patriots history:

“What do you do? It’s not ‘The Jetsons,’ I can’t jump up and just fly. What the heck am I supposed to do?”

It’s been 16 years since then, and still no flying cars.
