[Avid-L2] Connecting a Thunderbolt 3 Drive enclosure to a USB 3.0 PCIe card?

I've done a bunch of googling and everything seems to talk about taking Thunderbolt 3 to USB C.  What kind of adapter is there to take the standard USB 3.0 Type A connection on the USB 3.0 card in my MacPro mid 2010 upgraded to 12 Core 3.33GHz and connect to a Thunderbolt 3 Drive enclosure.

Many of the other bays have trash cans and the connect to these thunderbolt 3 drives with a thunderbolt 3 to thunderbolt 2 adapter.

I see if I had thunderbolt 3 on my computer it would connect to all kinds of things but obviously my old macpro doesn't support that.
