Updated playoff bracket
SB Nation’s beautiful playoff app has you covered with full recaps and an updated bracket after wild card action thus far. A junior out of Los Angeles, California, Thomas has been a productive force for Oregon. During his freshman season Thomas backed up current 49ers running back LaMichael James, but he has shouldered the load in carries over the past two years. He has rushed for 1,890 yards and 26 touchdowns in his three seasons at Oregon. He has also produced a school record 1,885 kick return yards and a 17.1 punt return average. Thomas is also a productive receiver out of the backfield, with 1,296 receiving yards and 15 touchdowns as a pass-catcher.
Thomas has a similar game to James, who was taken in the second round of the 2012 NFL Draft.
