De'Anthony Thomas on his fear of cats: "They're just weird"

After interviewing Aaron Murray, SB Nation's Dan Rubenstein sat down with new Kansas City Chiefs RB/WR/?? De'Anthony Thomas at the NFLPA Rookie Premiere to talk about life in Kansas City.

DAT was asked which animal he fears.

"Cats."

Cats? Why cats?

"I don't know, they're just weird."

Yes. Yes, they are, DAT.

For those keeping track, Eric Berry is afraid of horses, Aaron Murray is afraid of snakes, Jamaal Charles afraid of dogs and now DAT and cats.

Considering his nickname is Black Momba*, you should know his answer to the question of which animal uncommly kept as a pet would he keep as a pet.

DAT is not practicing with the Chiefs at OTAs right now because of an odd NFL rule that requires a player's school session to be over before practicing. He will be at the Chiefs mandatory minicamp next week.

Watch the video above.

*For those asking, the Momba spelling is intentional. DAT uses that, not Mamba.
