Kansas City Chiefs to retire Emmitt Thomas’ number
Emmitt Thomas will have his No. 18 jersey number retired by the Kansas City Chiefs to honor his induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Thomas, who will enter the Hall of Fame Aug. 2, will be the ninth Chiefs player to have his number retired by the franchise.
Kansas City will honor Thomas in a special ceremony when it hosts the Tennessee Titans Oct. 19. That is Atlanta’s bye week.
Thomas played cornerback for the Chiefs from 1966-1978, where he recorded 58 interceptions, still a franchise record.
