Cleveland Browns left tackle Joe Thomas continues his shenanigans with the “Joe Thomas Hour, from Pro Bowl practice in Florida.

The Joe Thomas Hour has taken to the road, filming from Orland, Fla., the site of the 2017 NFL Pro Bowl.

Thomas, who is in his 10th Pro Bowl, interviewed Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton, OT Andrew Whitworth, Titans OT Taylor Lewan,  Aqib Talib and Von Miller.

Some memorable moments: Thomas asked Whitworth what Hue Jackson is like. The Bengals lineman compared him to a WWE wrestler cutting a promo.

“I don’t think he prepares, I think he walks in off the cuff…you can’t tell if he’s talking to you or the TV,” Whitworth said.

Lewan showed how green behind the ears he is in his first Pro Bowl when he revealed that he asked veterans Thomas and Whitworth if they’d be rotating between left and right tackle.

The senior members of the team apparently laughed in his face.

Thomas made a memorable quote from the Pro Bowl the other day when he stated that while he’d like to see his friend, Alex Mack win a title, he would love to watch Roger Goodell hand Tom Brady the Vince Lombardi Trophy because he loves awkward moments.

There’s a sadness to Thomas’ career. Ten years ago, this kid skipped the spotlight of the NFL Draft to fish with his dad. He plays the most blue collar position on the field, the Wisconsin product symbolizes each and every Browns fan. He’s seen ownership change. He’s endured regime changes. He’s gone through head coach after head coach. Like us, he’s had no choice but to hope the current people in power get it right and the Browns become contenders.

Thomas was recently named as the best active left tackle to have never won a Super Bowl, by ESPN writer Scott Kacsmar (subscription required).

“There were several good options for left tackle, but Thomas has been the gold standard at the position for the past decade. It’s just too bad that the only winning team he ever played on was in his rookie season when the Browns finished 10-6 with an offense that actually looked competent. Since then, Cleveland has never finished better than 7-9 despite Thomas making 10 Pro Bowls and six first-team All-Pro selections.

Perhaps the most incredible feat for Thomas is that he has never missed a snap in 10 seasons, an iron-man streak that has survived six head coaches, 18 starting quarterbacks and the pain of a ton of losses,” Kacsmar wrote.

Thomas has done the “Joe Thomas Hour” throughout the season. It’s campy as heck, but fun. Just a guess, but it’s probably safe to assume that many NFL players are Jones-ing to give up their time to do such a thing. But here’s a Thomas, a Hall of Famer, not taking himself so seriously so he can entertain you, the fan, just as he does every Sunday.

The Pro Bowl gets knocked for being a silly show where players don’t try. It can be unwatchable at times.

But Cleveland, take pride in Thomas being there for the 10th straight year. With that helmet and No. 73 jersey, he represents you and everything the Browns have been through.
