Past Fantasy Outlooks
2020
2019
2018
Thomas suffered a cracked rib during the preseason that kept him off the field until the second half of the 2019 campaign. Coming off a four-touchdown effort as a rookie, he was in line for productive season, but the injury limited him to five games and one catch during the regular season. Thomas played minimally in the Texans' two postseason contests and returns to a crowded position group that also includes Darren Fells, Jordan Akins and Kahale Warring. Houston ran a lot of 12 personnel (one RB, two TE) last season, but changes at wide receiver could mean a roster that carries only three tight ends.
The 6-5 Thomas made for a big target and led the position group with four touchdowns last season. That was surprising, as fellow 2018 draftee Jordan Akins was presumed to be the receiving threat while Thomas was viewed as the more adept blocker. Thomas seemed poised for an expanded role in 2019, but unfortunately ended up being placed on IR due to a cracked rib.
Thomas was the second of a one-two, draft-day punch to bolster the beleaguered tight end position in Houston. He was selected in the sixth round, three rounds after the Texans took Jordan Akins. Following the retirement of C.J. Fiedorowicz, there's an opportunity for Thomas and/or Akins to emerge as a target for quarterback Deshaun Watson. Thomas is considered the bigger project of the two and is expected to become the blocking tight end, though at 6-5, he presents an inviting target for quarterback Deshaun Watson.
