Player Summary
Thomas is an experienced pass rusher with a variety of ways to win with his natural athleticism, explosiveness, and a solid group of PR moves. He'salso shown the ability to win consistently by converting speed to power. His short frame limits his upside, and he lacks the lower body strength to anchor and set an edge effectively. However, for a team looking for a passing down stand up pass rusher, his size, leverage, and quickness allows him to get under taller tackles, and his relentless motor combined with a natural athelticism to bend and recover give him a really solid floor for that fit. He's had a long history of injuries to both ankles, which will push him down boards.
