2023 Receiving Projections
2023 Fantasy Outlook
Thomas snagged 31 passes for 361 yards and five touchdowns last season at LSU, but appears primed for an even bigger role in 2023. The Tigers have championship aspirations with Heisman dark horse Jayden Daniels at quarterback, as well as a stable of capable running backs. Leading receiver Malik Nabers returns, and the 1,000-yard receiver figures to get a lot of attention from opposing defenses. However, the Tigers lost their other two top wideouts from 2022 in the form of Kayshon Boutte and Jaray Jenkins, leaving a void for someone like Thomas to fill. Thomas finished second on the squad in receiving touchdowns last year, and faces limited competition for opportunities besides Nabers this time around. Only Kyren Lacy and Alabama transfer Aaron Anderson look like legitimate contenders for targets. Meanwhile, at 6-4, Thomas has the size to become even more involved in the red zone. An uptick in production could be on the horizon for Thomas as a junior in 2023. Read Past Outlooks
Declares for draft
Thomas announced on his personal Twitter page on Tuesday that he'll enter the 2024 NFL Draft.
ANALYSIS
Thomas decides to leave LSU after having a career-best season in 2023, where he posted elite numbers across the board in 13 starts. He finished the campaign with 68 catches on 89 targets for 1,177 yards and 17 touchdowns, emerging as one of the most productive wideouts in the nation. Those numbers will surely command attention from teams looking for receiving depth at the next level.
