Thurman Thomas

Thurman Thomas and his wife Patti have two daughters, Olivia and Angelica. When he retired from professional football in 2000, Thurman Thomas began devoting much of his time to his business, Thurman Thomas Enterprises. Based in Niagara Falls, New York (just a short drive from Buffalo), Thomas remains close to the world of professional athletics. His company's mission is to provide guidance and training—in the form of seminars—to athletes and coaches of all levels, focusing on professional, semiprofessional and college athletes in "precarious or personally challenging situations." The company helps them make "well-informed choices" and their seminars are "designed to prevent adverse events that could lead to legal violations, negative press, and potential litigation."
