The former Coppell High School standout finished his college career with a signature performance in the Hyundai Sun Bowl. He finished the game with seven tackles, two for loss, and a sack, but he was in the North Carolina backfield all afternoon making life difficult for quarterback Mitch Trubisky.
Thomas finished his final season at Stanford with 55 tackles (2nd on the team), 13.5 tackles for loss and seven sacks (team leaders in both categories). Thomas joins teammate Christian McCaffrey as early entries to the NFL Draft.
