I had come around to thinking that Thomas would stick and become a legit deep threat along with Reynolds.
Just for perspective, Thomas was competing for a 5th or 6th WR slot. So this is not the end of the world.
Now, he's really in a tough spot. He must absolutely, positively impress the heck out of the coaches to even hope to stick around this season. Drops are out of the question, now, for example.
Good conditioning, good attitude, know that playbook backwards and forwards, and not a hint of a ped problem are the minimum requirements I would think.
Good luck to the kid...
