Thomas (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Bears in London.
EDGE Analysis
Thomas has been cleared to play Sunday, despite missing the Jaguars' Week 5 win over the Colts and then being listed as questionable heading into the weekend after he was a limited participant in practices Wednesday through Friday. He should reprise his usual role as a backup safety and core special-teams contributor.

Thomas (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.
EDGE Analysis
Thomas sustained a hamstring injury during Jaguars' practice last week that sidelined him for the team's Week 5 win over the Colts. However, he's got a chance to return in Week 6 after logging three consecutive limited practice sessions. If Thomas can't play through his hamstring injury Sunday, expect Darnell Savage to see increased work as the Jaguars' top reserve safety.

Thomas (hamstring) is inactive Sunday against the Colts.
EDGE Analysis
Thomas was a late addition to the injury report, not showing up on it until Friday when he logged a limited practice. His absence will leave the Jaguars lighter on depth in the secondary for Week 5.

Thomas (Achilles) does not have an injury designation for Sunday's Week 2 clash with Cleveland.
EDGE Analysis
Thomas hurt his Achilles during training camp in mid-August and missed Jacksonville's season-opening loss to Miami. However, he practiced in full Friday following a pair of limited sessions to start the week and doesn't have an injury designation heading into the weekend. Thomas will likely work mostly on special teams Week 2 as he did last season.

Thomas (Achilles) has been ruled for Sunday's regular-season opener against the Dolphins, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Thomas sustained an Achilles injury in mid-August, and while he was able to log three straight limited practices leading up to Week 1, he'll be held out for Sunday's contest. With fellow safeties Andrew Wingard (knee) and Tashaun Gipson (suspension) also out, Terrell Edmunds will serve as the primary backup behind starters Andre Cisco and Darnell Savage.

Thomas (Achilles) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Thomas' availability Sunday is now in jeopardy after logging a limited week of practice due to an Achilles injury. Jacksonville could be thin at safety in Week 1 if Thomas is unable to suit up, as the team is already without Tashaun Gipson (suspension) and Andrew Wingard (knee).

Thomas (Achilles) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
The fifth-year safety out of Auburn has been dealing with this Achilles issue for the last three weeks, but it appears he could be nearing a full return to the field after Wednesday's limited practice session. Once Thomas is past his injury, he's expected to play behind Andre Cisco in Jacksonville's secondary.

Coach Doug Pederson said Monday that Thomas is day-to-day with his heel injury, John Shipley of SI.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Thomas has been sidelined with a heel issue for almost two weeks now, but it seems like he's now close to suiting back up. If he makes Jacksonville's final 53-man roster for 2024, it will probably be as a special teams ace.

Thomas missed practice Thursday with a heel injury, Mia O'Brien of 1010 XL 92.5 FM Jacksonville reports.
EDGE Analysis
Thomas is headed into his fifth season with the Jaguars after being taken in the fifth round of the 2020 Draft. He doesn't see much action on defense but has been a stalwart on special teams for Jacksonville.

Thomas (forearm) was spotted participating in Thursday's practice, Bob Self of the Florida Times-Union reports.
EDGE Analysis
Thomas missed the final two games of Jacksonville's 2023 campaign due to a forearm injury, but it now appears that he's moved past the issue. The Auburn product has played almost strictly on special teams over the past two years (480 of 526 total snaps on special teams), and he's expected to compete for a similar role ahead of the Jaguars' 2024 season.
