Let's make this birthday one to remember.

58 years old (Born on January 01, 1967)

Happy Birthday to the legendary Derrick Thomas! You tackled quarterbacks like most people tackle birthday cake—swiftly, enthusiastically, and without mercy. With 126.5 career sacks under your belt, you made offensive linemen reconsider their life choices every Sunday.

Your induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2009 was just icing on a very intimidating cake. Today we celebrate not only your incredible legacy but also how effortlessly you turned chasing grown men around a field into an art form. Here's hoping heaven has plenty of quarterbacks for you to chase down—you've earned it! Happy heavenly birthday, DT!
