2026 Projections
Signed a one-year, $1.5 million contract with the Lions in August of 2025.
Makes 23 stops
Thomas recorded 23 tackles (10 solo) and one pass defended across 12 games with the Lions in 2025.
ANALYSIS
Thomas has primarily been a contributor on special teams throughout his career, and that was the case again for much of 2025. However, he played a combined 78 defensive snaps across Detroit's final two games and accounted for 14 of his 23 stops in that span. Thomas will become a free agent this offseason and will likely sign a modest, short-term deal to serve as a special-teamer.
