The QB turned TE will miss the rest of the season after being placed on IR for the second time this season. Thomas suffered a reported knee injury which many feared was an ACL tear but we in-game thought it was a hyperextension and hoped for no structural damage. The fear turned out to be unfounded as he did not suffer an ACL tear but the injury is significant enough that he will miss the rest of the season due to the second IR placement. Thomas suffered a hamstring injury Week 4 causing him to miss 6 games and had just return a week prior before suffering the knee injury versus the Raiders. Backup Ricky-Seals Jones was the likely successor but is also out due to injury (hip). Look for John Bates to take snaps as he has played well in his limited role this season.
