Report: Browns told Joe Thomas they have 'no plans' to trade him

There has been plenty of speculation that the Cleveland Browns will look to trade offensive tackle Joe Thomas this offseason, but the All-Pro reportedly hasn't heard the same from his team.

Tony Grossi of ESPNCleveland.com reports that Browns officials have told Thomas there are "no plans" to trade the 31-year-old.

Thomas has been named to the Pro Bowl in every year of his career in six All-Pro seasons, and has been one of the few bright spots on the Browns' roster since he was drafted third overall in 2007.

With the Browns going through another rebuilding session, Thomas could command a decent return of draft picks that might be more beneficial to the team in the long term.

At 31 years old, Thomas still has a few years left to play at an elite level, and could be a major contributor to a championship organization.
