Thomas caught 55 of 79 targets for 496 yards and four touchdowns in 2023.
Thomas suffered an Achilles tear in 2021 and then had only 323 yards and one touchdown in 14 games last season. He bounced back some as a 32-year-old, missing just one game and ultimately posting a receiving line pretty similar to teammate Jahan Dotson's. Many expected QB Sam Howell to really focus on getting the ball to Dotson and Terry McLaurin, but the target distribution ended up being fairly wide in Year 1 under OC Eric Bieniemy (who remains with the team for now, although that could change once a new head coach is named). Thomas has one year left on his contract and is scheduled to make a non-guaranteed $5.34 million base salary plus a $500,000 roster bonus due on the third day (March 15) of the league year, making him a prime candidate to be cut. If he does return to Washington, it'll likely involve an extension or pay cut to lower his $8.3 million cap hit.
