Thomas carried the ball four times for 12 yards in Sunday's win over the Falcons.
EDGE Analysis
The 49ers got Thomas' feet wet in what was his first game action of the season. After being signed earlier this week, it will be interesting to see what he eventually brings to the table after topping six carries just twice in 2014. Though he doesn't profile as the bell cow the 49ers' hobbled backfield could use with Carlos Hyde sidelined, Thomas' experience in pass protection and catching the ball out of the backfield could lead him to filling the injured Reggie Bush's role as the 49ers' third-down back.
