Thomas Jr. got back on the board with a touchdown in Week 8, but it was his only catch of the day. He has caught more than one pass in just three games this year and has yet to reach four receptions in a week. His route rate also sits at a paltry 54 percent.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalUsage

Thomas Jr.'s 54% route rate and one-catch games show severe underutilization.

Thomas Jr. got back on the board with a touchdown in Week 8 but caught only one pass that day. He has caught more than one pass in just three games this year and has yet to reach four receptions in a week. His route rate sits at a paltry 54 percent, meaning a former first-round pick with a 1,300-yard season on his resume is barely on the field for half of his offense's passing plays.
