Thomas's Yale pedigree and four years in Indianapolis gave him enough know-how to step in immediately when Ty Okada went down with a hamstring injury, and he made an instant impact by deflecting a deep ball that Seattle turned into a pick in the opener. He's not the long-term answer at safety with Okada and Julian Love entrenched, but he's proven he can play winning snaps in a pinch.
Strengths: Experienced four-year veteran who delivered a game-altering tipped-pass interception the moment he was thrust into a starting role.
Weaknesses: Only in the lineup due to an injury ahead of him, and will likely cede snaps back once Okada is fully healthy.
