Former Vikings running back lands a job with the Jaguars

As an undrafted rookie last year, running back Roc Thomas wasn’t given much of a shot to make the final roster of the Minnesota Vikings. But Thomas had a good training camp and he performed well enough during the preseason that the Vikings decided to keep him around for the 2018 regular season.

He ended up appearing in only five games for Minnesota last year, gaining a total of 30 rushing yards on eight carries and catching two passes for 21 yards.

Following the conclusion of the Vikings’ 2018 season, Thomas found himself in a bit of hot water with the team after he was arrested in January on charges of felony marijuana possession.
