Tragedy Strikes: Former NFL Star and Super Bowl Champion Earl Thomas’s Home Reduced to Ashes in Massive Fire—Local Chief Calls It a ‘Total Loss’ After Hours-Long Battle with the Blaze

A huge blaze has destroyed the home of former NFL star and Super Bowl champion Earl Thomas, according to firefighters in Orange County, Texas.

The massive fire started on Thursday afternoon, and fire chief Matt Manshack told reporters on the scene that it was a ‘total loss’, per reports from 12 News.

It was also reported that fire crews would still be at the property into the night as they continued to battle to put out the flames, while it is as yet unclear what caused the blaze to start.

Officials told reporters at the scene that nobody was in the home when the fire began, and that Thomas was later present at the property before leaving again.

The 33-year-old last played in the NFL for the Baltimore Ravens in 2019, but had previously won the Super Bowl during a successful eight-year spell with the Seahawks.

He is a three-time first-team All-Pro, and was voted into the NFL 2010s All-Decade team.

He signed a huge four-year $55million contract with the Ravens in 2019, but played just one season before he punched teammate Chuck Clark in practice and was released from the team.

The Southeast Texas native has since courted more controversy, and was arrested in May of this year at Spanky’s Bar and Grill on a warrant out of Austin for a violation of a court protective order.

That initially stemmed from him allegedly sending threatening messages to his wife about her and their children.

It was reported at the time that Thomas was booked into the Orange County Jail and soon bonded out, with his bond set at $15,000.

The original May 2021 protective order requires him to communicate with the woman only through a co-parenting phone application, and she claimed he was refusing to download the app and showed up unannounced at places she was visiting, according to the police affidavit.

In May 2020, Thomas’ wife was arrested after she was accused of pointing a loaded pistol at his head after breaking into a vacation home and finding him with another woman.

She filed for divorce in November.

On the field, he also gained a reputation for being ‘uncoachable’, per The Athletic. A number of his former Seahawks teammates revealed that he often refused to train, and was fined for missing team meetings and turning up late.

It was also reported after his release by the Seahawks that the Houston Texans were considering picking him up, but decided against it after several players let it be known that they didn’t want him on the team.
