With second-year nose tackle Daniel McCullers being declared out after suffering what looked like a nastier lower leg injury than it mercifully turned out to be, expect to see a healthy dose of Cam Thomas later today, and perhaps later in the week, as it seems likely the young defensive lineman could be in for multiple games missed.
Thomas, of course, is the much-maligned free agent acquisition from last offseason, who spent the majority of the 2014 season starting at left defensive tackle. But he also started two games in place of nose tackle Steve McLendon, and after he was demoted from the starting lineup, he logged more time at nose than at end.
