The Baltimore Ravens have reportedly reached a deal with former Seattle Seahawks All-Pro safety Earl Thomas.

Thomas is getting a hefty contract and is coming off a season-ending leg injury so it'll be interesting to see how he bounces back with a new team. Thomas has made six Pro-Bowls and three first team All-Pro teams as well as achieving a Super Bowl victory back in 2013.

The Ravens can hope to get the speedy, vicious hard-hitting play style that Thomas brings to the table. At the age of 29 it's safe to say he has a lot of work to do in order to make it back to his elite days. The leg-injury that ended his 2018 season is also something to keep an eye on going forward, but it's likely he'll be a full go for the 2019 season.

Thomas badly wanted a long-term deal and after the Seahawks neglected to extend his contract in 2018, he was not pleased to say the least especially after the injury. Thomas sat out all of training camp and finally reported for the start of the season. The former Seattle safety was having a characteristically solid season before it abruptly ended.

After losing several key players on defense, Thomas could reignite an always solid Baltimore defense and further help them continue to be an elite unit in 2019 and beyond.

Thomas is a fierce competitor and it's likely the change of scenery is exactly what he needs at this point in his career.
