INJURIES

Ready to play Thomas (forearm) is active for Sunday's matchup with the Commanders.
Impact The safety was activated from IR on Saturday. Thomas has not played since going down with the forearm injury in Week 3. The sixth-year pro has played on 50 special-teams snaps and nine defensive snaps in 2025, recording two tackles (one solo).
NOVEMBER 9 • ROTOWIRE
Activated from IR The Lions activated Thomas (forearm) from injured reserve Saturday.
Impact Thomas remains questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders, but this move would suggest he's on track to play for the first time since going down with the forearm injury in Week 3. Thomas logged just nine defensive snaps across the first three games of the season but is a fixture on special teams for Detroit.
NOVEMBER 9 • ROTOWIRE
Not activated from IR Thomas (forearm) was not activated from injured reserve and has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Vikings.
Impact With Thomas' 21-day practice window opened earlier this week, his status for Sunday's game was in question. The team reported on X that he will not play this week and will remain on the injured reserve. The 2020 fifth-rounder is in the final stages of his recovery from a broken forearm sustained in late September, and will now look to return to the active roster for Week 10.
NOVEMBER 1 • ROTOWIRE
Designated to return from IR The Lions designated Thomas (forearm) to return from injured reserve Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Impact Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News initially reported that Thomas would be designated to return from IR on Tuesday, but the Lions have opted to open the 2020 fifth-rounder's 21-day practice window a day earlier. Thomas is in the final stages of his recovery from a broken forearm that he sustained in late September, and his practice participation this week will determine whether he's activated off IR ahead of the Lions' NFC North tilt against the Vikings on Sunday.
OCTOBER 28 • ROTOWIRE
Set to have practice window opened The Lions plan on opening Thomas' (forearm) 21-day practice window to return from injured reserve Tuesday, Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News reports.
Impact Thomas underwent surgery to repair a broken forearm that he sustained during the Lions' Week 3 win over the Ravens, which prompted his placement on injured reserve. The 2020 fifth-rounder has had five weeks to recover and will be cleared to practice once he is designated to return from IR by the Lions. That gives Thomas a chance to be activated from IR ahead of Detroit's Week 9 clash against Minnesota on Sunday. He mostly served in a special-teams role when healthy, though he could see an increased role in the secondary if Kerby Joseph (knee) misses time.
OCTOBER 27 • ROTOWIRE
Underwent forearm surgery Thomas underwent surgery on his broken forearm but could return from injured reserve when eligible in Week 9 versus Minnesota, Justin Rogers of Detroit Football Network reports.
Impact Thomas suffered the injury on special teams in Week 3 against the Ravens. He'd previously been dealing with a broken hand on the same side. Thomas is a special-teams asset and reserve safety for the Lions.
OCTOBER 14 • ROTOWIRE
Moves to IR Thomas (forearm) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.
Impact The 27-year-old safety didn't practice all week after sustaining a forearm injury in Detroit's Week 3 win over the Ravens, and he'll now be forced to miss the team's next four games. Thomas has played 59 total snaps (nine on defense, 50 on special teams) through three contests this season, recording two total tackles.
SEPTEMBER 27 • ROTOWIRE
Unavailable for Week 4 Thomas (forearm) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Browns, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Thomas was absent from practice throughout the entire week as he nurses an apparent forearm injury. In his absence, Thomas Harper may be asked to operate in a larger role at reserve safety behind starters Brian Branch and Kerby Joseph versus Cleveland.

Full participant in practice Thomas (hand) was a full participant in Detroit's practice Wednesday.
Impact Thomas has seemingly recovered from the hand injury he suffered during the first quarter of the team's Week 1 loss to the Packers. The 27-year-old should be good to go for Sunday's matchup versus the Bears, where he will likely serve as a backup safety behind Kerby Joseph and Brian Branch once again.

Exits game with hand injury Thomas is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Packers due to a hand injury.
Impact Thomas may have picked up the injury during the Lions' first defensive drive in the first quarter. He'll undergo further tests to determine the severity of the injury and whether he can return to Sunday's contest. Thomas entered Sunday's game as the only reserve safety on the active roster behind Kerby Joseph and Brian Branch.

JULY 28 • JACKSONVILLE.COM
Ready to play Sunday Thomas (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Bears in London.
Impact 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.
OCTOBER 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Questionable for Week 6 Thomas (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.
Impact 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.
OCTOBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Not playing Sunday Thomas (hamstring) is inactive Sunday against th Colts.
Impact 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.

OCTOBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Returning to action Sunday Thomas (Achilles) does not have an injury designation for Sunday's Week 2 clash with Cleveland.
Impact 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.

SEPTEMBER 8, 2024 • JAGUARS.COM
Won't play Sunday Thomas (Achilles) has been ruled for Sunday's regular-season opener against the Dolphins, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
Impact 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.
SEPTEMBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Could play Sunday Thomas (Achilles) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
Impact 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).
SEPTEMBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Limited Wednesday Thomas (Achilles) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Impact 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.
SEPTEMBER 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Considered day-to-day Coach Doug Pederson said Monday that Thomas is day-to-day with his heel injury, John Shipley of SI.com reports.
Impact 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.
AUGUST 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Dealing with heel injury Thomas missed practice Thursday with a heel injury, Mia O'Brien of 1010 XL 92.5 FM Jacksonville reports.
Impact 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.
AUGUST 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Past forearm injury Thomas (forearm) was spotted participating in Thursday's practice, Bob Self of the Florida Times-Union reports.
Impact 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.
