Jeff Thomas NFL future depends on character development

Jeff Thomas was a big play wide receiver and return man during his three seasons with the Miami football program. Thomas leaves the Hurricanes after his junior season for the NFL Draft after nearly transferring to Illinois following a sophomore season which he led the team in receptions.

Thomas ended his career with Miami contributing 83 receptions for 1,316 yards and eight touchdowns. On special teams, Thomas averaged 22.6 yards per kickoff returns and 18.9 yards on punt returns with a spectacular TD against Virginia Tech in 2018. Thomas is headed towards being a third-day selection in the 2020 NFL Draft.
