STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Thornton's rookie line: 30 targets, 10 catches, 135 yards, 0 TDs; now sidelined with injury.

Thornton logged 399 snaps on offense as a rookie with 30 targets, 10 receptions, 135 yards, and zero touchdowns across 15 games (5 starts), posting a 10 percent drop rate (three drops). The source notes that a sophomore surge is warranted given Klint Kubiak's offensive-minded coaching and play-calling, but Thornton's availability has become a concern as he has missed multiple practices and both preseason games due to being banged up, sitting in street clothes on the sideline.
