Shoulder injury plus Surtain shadowing makes Thomas Jr. a sit in Week 2.
Thomas Jr. is dealing with a shoulder injury and opened the week with a limited practice session on Wednesday. He had only 50% route share, 13% target share, 40 receiving yards (3.33 YPRR), and 16.7% first-read share in Week 1. Even if fully healthy, the source wouldn't play him this week. Last year, Patrick Surtain shadowed Thomas Jr. on 78.8% of his routes, limiting him to one target, one reception, and nine receiving yards. Expect Surtain to blanket him again in Week 2.
