November 30, 2008 Wide receiver Devin Thomas scored his first career touchdown in the Week 13 loss to the Redskins. He took a reverse handoff 29 yards for a score.
Our View:Thomas has not made much of an impact in his rookie season, and it's nice to see him at least do something. He can't be used in fantasy leagues until he starts catching the ball, though.
August 15, 2008 Devin Thomas, who is recovering from a strained hamstring, is expected to make his preseason debut Saturday against the Jets, according to the Washington Post.
Our View:The rookie is expected to play a lot in the game, and is further along in his development than Malcolm Kelly, who remains sidelined while recovering from arthroscopic knee surgery. If Thomas performs well against the Jets, it will help in his bid to earn a solid role early in the season.
August 11, 2008 Devin Thomas returned to practice on Monday after sitting out since the first week of camp because of a hamstring strain, according to ESPN.com.
Our View:Thomas could appear in his first game action against the Jets, and there is still enough time for him to work his way into consideration for looks early in the year.
August 11, 2008 Devin Thomas, has been dealing with a hamstring ailment, but is expected to return to full practice this week, according to the Washington Post.
Our View:He could make his preseason debut this weekend against the Jets.
August 6, 2008 Redskins coach Jim Zorn told the Washington Post that Devin Thomas failed a conditioning test at the beginning of training camp and that is the root of his hamstring problems. Thomas will miss several more weeks of the preseason and will be quite far behind. "I've had this happen in other places I've coached," Zorn said, "and it's very difficult [to get caught up]."
Our View:Fellow rookie Malcolm Kelly also failed the test, which has not made Zorn happy. Thomas has loads of potential, but we wouldn't suggest you taking him outside of keeper leagues.
