Julius Thomas

Julius Thomas will play for Jacksonville Thursday night

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Julius Thomas (ankle) will play on Thursday Night Football against the Tennessee Titans according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.

What It Means:

Thomas was expected to play as long as he didn't suffer a setback in pregame warmups, but this is confirmation he can be fired up for Thursday Night Football. The Titans have given up the sixth most yards, but only two touchdowns to opposing tight ends this season.

Our projections have Thomas going for 49 yards on four catches with 0.30 touchdowns on Thursday night.
