The Pixel 9-series FCC filings showed Thread radios on the listed phone models.

Did it turn out to be true?

Right. It turned out the way this report said. It was reported on Jul 12, 2024 in 9to5Google, and we could not tell who reported it first. That was 32 days before Google Pixel was announced on Aug 13, 2024. The FCC-reporting source explicitly identified Thread radios in the surfaced Pixel 9-family regulatory hardware, so the statement about what the filings showed is correct as written.
