Thomas said Friday that he wants to resume his NFL career, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Thomas hasn't played in the NFL since 2019 and turns 33 in May, but he told Schefter via text, "I'm ready, I'm in shape. My timing is on point." The 2010 first-round pick by Seattle had an on-field confrontation with former Ravens teammate Chuck Clark ahead of the 2020 campaign and was cut by Baltimore, with the team citing "personal conduct that has adversely affected the Ravens." After his $10 million contact was voided, the former All-Pro safety filed a grievance with his old team and has remained out of the NFL since. Thomas has 30 career interceptions and finished with at least 50 tackles seven times during his 10-year career, but it's unclear how successful he'll be after being out of the league for two years.

Thomas filed a grievance against the Ravens after his contract was terminated in August, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Thomas had an on-field confrontation with teammate Chuck Clark in August, and the Ravens cut him, citing "personal conduct that has adversely affected the Ravens." The guaranteed $10 million in Thomas' contract then became void, and it appears that's what the All-Pro safety is seeking in his grievance. Thomas came close to signing in Houston earlier this season, but he remains a free agent at this time.

The Texans won't host Thomas for a workout anymore, John McClain of The Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

It appears the move could be related to the rising COVID-19 concerns around the league following multiple positive tests from the Titans, per Aaron Wilson of The Houston Chronicle. However, McClain relayed that internal discussions decided that Thomas wasn't a good fit with the organization. The veteran safety was cut by the Ravens before Week 1 after getting into an altercation with fellow safety Chuck Clark, and he'll remain a free agent for the time being.

Thomas arrived in Houston on Monday for a workout, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle repotrs.

EDGE Analysis

The Texans placed A.J. Moore (hamstring) on the injured list Monday, so it looks like there's legitimate interest in Thomas, who was released by the Ravens in August. One league source said there's a "strong chance" the Texans sign him if the audition and meetings with team officials go well. The Ravens cited personal conduct issues for releasing him, so the Texans will do their due diligence.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said Tuesday that the 49ers are not interested in pursuing Thomas as a free agent, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Thomas had his contract terminated Sunday, accompanied by a statement citing "personal conduct that has adversely affected the Baltimore Ravens." Though the 31-year-old didn't look his former All-Pro self in 2019, he returned value as a starter while notching 47 tackles and two interceptions across 15 games. Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the Cowboys are also not considering making a move for Thomas.

The Ravens terminated Thomas' contract Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The team cited "personal conduct that has adversely affected the Baltimore Ravens" as the reason for the move. Thomas and teammate Chuck Clark were involved in an on-field altercation Friday, and the team has now elected to part ways with the seven-time Pro Bowler. Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the Cowboys, 49ers and Texans are among the teams that could look into signing Thomas.

The Ravens are set to part ways with Thomas, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Per the report, the Ravens will either release the safety for conduct detrimental to the team (after Thomas was involved in an on-field confrontation with teammate Chuck Clark) or trade him. Schefter suggests that Dallas is the leading contender to land Thomas if he's released. The seven-time Pro Bowler logged 47 tackles and two picks in 15 games for Baltimore last season.

Thomas was sent home from practice Friday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hensley also noted this is the second time in Thomas' tenure with the Ravens that the passionate safety got into a war of words with a teammate, perhaps alluding to some sort of rift between team and player. Mike Garafolo of NFL Network is reporting the Ravens are even considering releasing or trading Thomas after Friday's latest incident, although that type of over-reactionary language hasn't seeped into the discourse among Ravens beat writers. It's worth noting, Chuck Clark, the safety which Thomas reportedly got into an exchange of words with, is practicing Saturday so there's perhaps something amiss with this admittedly odd situation.

Thomas had seven tackles and a sack in the Ravens' loss to the Titans in the AFC divisional round.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran fell one tackle short of his season high and added the first postseason sack of his career when he came screaming off the edge to bring down Ryan Tannehill. Thomas had a reasonably successful first season as a Raven overall after missing most of 2018 due to a fractured tibia, finishing with 49 total tackles, two interceptions and two sacks while not missing a game due to injury. He'll enter 2020 on the second year of his four-year, $55 million deal.

Thomas (knee/hand) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Erik Bacharach of The Tennessean reports.

EDGE Analysis

Thomas sat out Tuesday's practice for non-injury reasons, and he's now resumed participating without any limitations. The veteran safety is on track to play his usual every-down role in Baltimore's secondary during Saturday's divisional-round tilt against the Titans.
