STACKED’s take
Thomas' catch rate collapsed to 45.5% this year with 19 career drops; needs fresh start.
Thomas' production has declined sharply since his rookie year: 87 catches for 1,282 yards and 10 touchdowns as a rookie versus 62 catches for 885 yards and 8 touchdowns for Harrison in the same year, but both have seen production and catch percentage fall since. Thomas' catch reliability is a major concern, falling from a 65.4% catch rate per target as a rookie to 52.7% last year and 45.5% this year, with 19 total drops including 10 last year per Pro Football Reference. An AFC personnel evaluator noted Thomas 'definitely would fall in that category' of players who need a change of scenery, saying 'it didn't work out and your career's about to end' — that kind of pressure.
