Every NFL team has something to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. 

It is a Thanksgiving tradition in many households across the country for family members to tell each other something they are thankful for each year. Perhaps it is time for NFL teams to stop and tell everyone what they’re thankful for.

Of course, every NFL team should be thankful for their fans. Every team is blessed with great fans. Even the 1-10 Raiders, who have been bad for years, have tens of thousands of fans who come out to cheer on their team in every type of weather.

That is true in every NFL city. The fans are the only reason the league exists. Everything the league does needs to be done with the fans in mind, and for the most part that is true.

So lets take this beyond that and look at the roster and coaching staff in each city, and come up individuals that the team and fans should be thankful for. There are clearly many more things that are listed here, so be sure to comment with what you are most thankful for with your favorite team.
