2026 TCACC Annual Dinner

Annual Dinner Speaker: Hollis Thomas
Join us for a fireside chat with Hollis Thomas, former professional football defensive tackle and longtime cornerstone of the Philadelphia Eagles’ defense. A native of Brooklyn, New York, Thomas played college football at Northern Illinois University before entering the NFL as an undrafted free agent in 1996. Through determination and talent, he earned a roster spot with the Eagles and became one of the team’s most dependable interior linemen over an 11-year career (1996–2006).
Known for his strength, durability, and ability to disrupt opposing offenses, Thomas played a key role in the Eagles’ success during multiple playoff runs and four consecutive NFC Championship Games from 2001–2004. In recognition of his contributions, he was inducted into the Philadelphia Eagles Hall of Fame, cementing his legacy as one of the franchise’s most reliable defensive linemen.
Since retiring, Thomas has remained a prominent voice in football through mentorship, community involvement, and sports media. He co-hosts local radio shows on SportsRadio 94 WIP in Philadelphia and runs The Green Legion Radio Show, sharing insights and stories from his NFL career.
Don’t miss this opportunity to hear from Hollis Thomas as he shares his experiences on the field, lessons in leadership, and insights into life after professional football.
