SUMMARY
- Skylar Thompson is in his second year with the Miami Dolphins in the NFL.
- Klay Thompson, the 6-foot-6 shooting guard for the Golden State Warriors, is unrelated to Skylar Thompson.
Skylar Thompson is a prominent name in the NFL, and this is his second year with the Miami Dolphins. The 26-year-old quarterback was named a 3-star recruit by ESPN. The product of the Kansas State Wildcats was undoubtedly the best quarterback that the Kansas State football has ever seen. Skylar is, in fact, an efficient running quarterback; however, his potential as a passer is often criticized.
Miami Dolphins head coach, Mike McDaniel, claims that it’s difficult to leave Thompson off the roster, considering his power-packed performance in the 2022 preseason, and even now, there is another Thompson who blew out the Utah Jazz on February 13, 2024. Klay Thompson, the 6-foot-6 shooting guard for the Golden State Warriors, is averaging 17.1 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 2.3 assists while shooting 41.8% from the deep.
Klay Thompson doesn’t have a brother who is a Dolphins’ quarterback
The Dubs Nation star has two brothers, and both share an athletic background. The eldest of the three ‘Biological Splash Brothers’ is a former professional basketball player. Mychel Thompson is the eldest of the Thompson brothers and was picked in the third round of the 2011 NBA Developmental League Draft. He also played five games with the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2011–12 season and took a retirement from his career as a hooper in 2018.
Skylar Thompson has two brothers, just like Klay Thompson
The quarterback has two brothers named Anthony and Eric Thompson. What’s astonishing is that, just like Klay, Skylar is also the middle child of Brad Thompson and Kathy Thompson. However, it’s worth noting that Kathy is not Skylar’s biological mother. Skykar’s biological mother was Teresa Thompson; however, she succumbed to a tragic death, and his father later married again.
