Till 2018, Earl stayed with the Seahawks. Back in 2019, he was roped in by the Baltimore Ravens as a free agent. However, his stint with the Ravens didn’t last long as he played for them only for a solitary season.

Recently, Earl has been at the center of a major controversy. As reported by the Austin American-Statesman, an arrest warrant has been issued against Earl by a judge in Austin. Reportedly, Thomas has been charged with a third-degree felony for violating the protective order more than twice in the last 12 months.

According to the police, Earl sent potentially threatening messages to a woman regarding her and her children which violates the protective order issued by the court. In Earl’s defense, Trey Dolezal, the lawyer who is representing him told the American-Statesman, “They were consciously and collectively working together to see his kids. I don’t really understand how he could be in violation by working together to visit with his children.”

It will be interesting to see what happens next in the case.
