He was also known as one of the team's most emotional leaders for the Buffalo Bills a team that won more games (103) than any AFC team in the 1990s. His ability to catch the ball as well as run with it was a key ingredient to the Bills' "No Huddle" offensive attack. In 1991, Thomas amassed more than 2,000 all-purpose yards, just the 11th player ever to do so.  Named to the NFL's All-Decade Team of the 1990s, Thomas was selected first- or second-team All-Pro and All-AFC five times, and was voted to the Pro Bowl five straight years.
