For a second straight summer, Joe Thomas joined Tom Brady's team -- unofficially, of course. Thomas is still the Browns' Pro-Bowl tackle and Brady is still the Patriots' starting quarterback (as Bill Belichick has repeatedly made clear), but that doesn't mean Thomas isn't on Brady's side.

Last summer, Thomas backed Brady's fight with the NFL over Deflategate, using phrases like "outrageous, ridiculous witch hunts," and comparing Brady's alleged crime and punishment to speeding by a single MPH and getting the death penalty.
