2025 Fantasy Outlook
Thomas went undrafted out of UAB in 2023 but has settled into a starting role since then, including 15 nods in 17 games last season. Overall, he's notched 85 tackles, 11 pass defenses without an interception and one forced fumble in 29 contests. The Cardinals will be without Sean Murphy-Bunting for the year due to a knee injury, so the trio of Thomas, Max Melton and rookie second-rounder Will Johnson will man outside corner for the team in the coming campaign. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a three-year, $2.72 million contract with the Lions in April of 2023. Waived by the Lions in August of 2023. Claimed off waivers by the Cardinals in August of 2023.
Carted off practice field
Thomas was carted off the field during Friday's practice after injuring his left leg, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.
ANALYSIS
Thomas was on the ground for several minutes while being checked on by trainers before being carted to the locker room. He'll undergo further testing to determine the severity of the injury, but his initial reaction isn't good news for the third-year corner. Jaylon Jones (shoulder), Max Melton and Elijah Jones (ankle) are among candidates who would battle for reps at outside corner were Thomas to be sidelined for an extended period of time.
