Thomas avows innocence in Colts turmoil
Former Baltimore Colts general manager Thomas denies pressuring owner Irsay to fire coach Marchibroda or seek talks with other clubs. He asserts Marchibroda pursued external discussions and that Irsay blocked his own access. Thomas explains his contract gave him authority over personnel and disputes claims of large loans or high renewal demands. He cites salary talks as starting points, with Irsay offering a lower package than Thomas sought.
